Watch Me Read You - Odette[00:00:00]
Written by:Georgia Sallybanks/Charlie Hugall/Damian Taylor[00:00:01]
Watch me read you[00:00:11]
The turning pages of an epic[00:00:13]
Dissected hallucinogenic[00:00:15]
Black coffee addict[00:00:17]
Life ended lies cold[00:00:18]
On that metal tray[00:00:20]
Wasting away[00:00:21]
I watch him sneer at me from beyond the grave[00:00:23]
I hear him call for me[00:00:25]
Watch me read you[00:00:27]
I get scared when it falls dark[00:00:29]
The creeping shadows up my arm[00:00:31]
The sneaking scarecrows work their charm[00:00:33]
But circumstantial[00:00:35]
The way I blink when you get mad[00:00:37]
I feel disarmed when you get sad[00:00:39]
But turn to run when we fall back[00:00:41]
On old behaviors[00:00:43]
When the flavor turns from sweet to sour[00:00:44]
That's the hour that I seek the heavy hearts[00:00:47]
And tie the trees with words of hatred[00:00:50]
Watch it seep through skin like sap to bark[00:00:51]
I cower in the dark to your return[00:00:54]
When will I learn[00:00:57]
We never wanted to be more than just a silhouette[00:00:59]
Breathe in the smoke from mother's[00:01:03]
Muzzle lying in the dirt[00:01:05]
So make a promise but then later we can just[00:01:07]
Forget[00:01:10]
It's hard to let your breathe out[00:01:11]
When you used to hold it in[00:01:13]
She'll go oh[00:01:15]
Got out through the window oh[00:01:17]
It's her oh[00:01:19]
Maybe just a shadow[00:01:21]
You never wanted to be more than just a silhouette[00:01:22]
But when you grab the light[00:01:26]
Reflects I see you again[00:01:28]
The beautiful colors on the people's faces[00:01:31]
And the way they sat on top of those necks[00:01:35]
Watch me read you[00:01:38]
Like words ripped right off the page[00:01:39]
Another ghost another day[00:01:42]
Of melancholy uv rays and heavy eye lids[00:01:43]
You've just decided not to care[00:01:47]
Compressed your fears and cut your hair[00:01:49]
Lifted your shirt to find there's nothing there[00:01:51]
Now read me[00:01:54]
Red wine copper stain curly hair[00:01:55]
Crazy eyes impulsive mouth[00:01:57]
She loves the rain but not the dark[00:01:59]
You feel insane[00:02:00]
The overcast is wet with blood[00:02:01]
She turns to you to say[00:02:02]
Hey we can't exist[00:02:04]
And in that moment it's just bliss[00:02:07]
It's like you missed a thousand years[00:02:09]
And as you kiss it's like you drift[00:02:11]
Between here and there[00:02:13]
Between real and fake[00:02:15]
As I hold my breathe[00:02:16]
I can't see your face[00:02:17]
Watch me read me read you read them read us[00:02:18]
Everyone's a burning book[00:02:21]
I trust and lust and love[00:02:22]
In what we are and what we're made of[00:02:24]
We never wanted to be more than just a silhouette[00:02:26]
Breathe in the smoke from mother's[00:02:29]
Muzzle lying in the dirt[00:02:31]
So make a promise but then later we can just[00:02:33]
Forget[00:02:36]
It's hard to let your breathe out[00:02:37]
When you used to hold it in[00:02:39]
She'll go oh[00:02:41]
Got out through the window oh[00:02:43]
It's her oh[00:02:46]
Maybe just a shadow[00:02:47]
You never wanted to be more than just a silhouette[00:02:49]
But when you grab the light[00:02:53]
Reflects I see you again[00:02:55]
So don't you see me oh you surround me[00:02:57]
It's getting harder babe to focus on just one thing[00:03:01]
It's enigmatic truly astounding[00:03:05]
The way we stand together[00:03:09]
But we are so drifting[00:03:10]
You are so absent oh[00:03:13]
But you consume me oh[00:03:14]
And when the sun goes down[00:03:17]
The night it wraps around me[00:03:18]
You try to stand still oh[00:03:20]
I can't help moving oh[00:03:22]
You're like the moon that joins the tide that rushes[00:03:24]
Through me[00:03:27]
We never wanted to be more than just a silhouette[00:03:28]
Breathe in the smoke from mother's[00:03:32]
Muzzle lying in the dirt[00:03:34]
So make a promise but then later we can just[00:03:36]
Forget[00:03:39]
It's hard to let your breathe out[00:03:40]
When you used to hold it in[00:03:42]
She'll go oh[00:03:45]
Got out through the window oh[00:03:46]
It's her oh[00:03:49]
Maybe just a shadow[00:03:50]
You never wanted to be more than just a silhouette[00:03:52]
But when you grab the light[00:03:56]
Reflects I see you again ohhh[00:03:58]
I see you again ohhh[00:04:02]
I watch you read me[00:04:07]
The burning pages of my life[00:04:09]
Reduced to ash and overnight[00:04:11]
I find my body is not mine[00:04:13]
