Lyrics Red Eye - Motherfolk

Red Eye

You took the red eye home
It was your quickest option
You were all alone
But that never bothered you
I kept the lights turned on
I swear this house is haunted
There’s something in the walls
And I’m all alone
Why did I come here?
Why are you with me?
Are you trying to kill me?
Did you miss me?
You only come 'round when I’m untethered
But you fit me well like an old sweater
I had to bite my tongue
It was my only option
My mouth filled up with blood
But you kept on talking
Cause I don’t open up, I just push it down
Might not work forever, but it works for now
What’s the point in even trying to let it out?
What’s the use in weighing both of us down?
But if it helps you
I can try better
We can both pretend we’ll live forever
Or can I tell you that you don’t remember
Everything we’ve done, we’ve done together
If I could get a word
I would tell you, my love
That I wish I could change who I am, who I was
And it goes without saying, but I’ll say it, I’m done
There’s still blood on my shirt from biting my tongue
If I could get a word
I would tell you, my love
That I wish I could change who I am, who I was
But it goes without saying, I’ll hate that I’m done
There’s still blood on my shirt from biting my tongue
There’s blood on my shirt from biting my tongue
There’s blood on my shirt from biting my tongue
