Juvenilia (Sylvia, oh Sylvia!) Lyrics

A pocket of light shines down from the cosmos

From the cosmic accident of birth

To the final grotesque joke of death

You must play the straight man

And tolerate the humor of the worms

Before the sun dries up

When the sun is gone

Who will hear my songs

I can feel the weight

I can feel your words

And they hurt

And when you me in the dirt

Then you push me in the background

Thinking of my life

And seeing how I act now

Try to keep my cool

And always keep composure

It's getting kinda hard

So just call me when you're sober

When the sun is gone

Who will hear my song

Tempo of

Strict ocean metronome

Blood was ordered

Proceed private flood

Pluck my heart out

Find what makes it move

Haunt the clock

And stay the afternoon

The roof is caving in

And the walls begin to bend

So just come crashing down on me

Before the world begins to end

A bed of flowers lay still

You're being held against your will

No one around you really seems to care

Were you ever really there

Fall away again

When There's something goin on

But you don't know who to call

Falling down again

When there's no one left to ask

And you can't forget your past

Why can't you see

What you're doing to me

Everything is wrong and you don't know how to be

When you're calling out my name from the top of the stairs

Maybe you'd come down if you were ever really there

I don't know what's wrong

The sky's turning red

Everything just fades to black when it's all in your head

Im screaming out your name

From under the water

But im sinking anyways so why even bother

There's something goin on but I don't know what

There's a hole inside my brain

At the place where you cut

There's nothing going on

But im thinking again

Am i no good

Living in a haze

Under your beetle breath

Magenta paints the sky

When there's not enough left

You're grabbing onto me like

Youre gonna die

I wanna hold u tight

But there's not enough time

A bed of flowers lay still

You're being held against your will

No one around you really seems to care

Were you ever really there
