lyrics

Let’s dance
Let’s drink
Let’s fuck
And sing
Let go
You know
It’s all
Too much to breathe

Shot of jag
Shot of gold
Shot of 151
4 or 5 of these and I’ll get a party on
And I won’t stop
‘Til I almost throw up
Get to that point where I’ll fuck ‘till the sun comes up
Yeah girl, lemme hear that dirty talk
I’ll spit it right back at you, fuck that shit up
Let’s get that four on the floor
Foreplay on the floor
This is perfect, don’t want to wake up

We’re all in an alternate reality
Wondering if anyone else feels like me
You don’t know? Well we can see:
Wanna fuck? (yeah)
Wanna dance? (yeah)
Wanna push the boundaries? (what do you mean?)
“Ah shit, I shouldn’t say. Is this the happiest you can remember being recently?”
“No”
Well you’re not ready to party like me

Love it when I don’t feel like me at all
You see, it’s all too much to breathe
Too insecure to be myself without help
But I can transform into the real me

I want you to take advantage of my vulnerability

I want those pheromones
I want to be wrapped around those bones
Venture into the unknown
Consume you and become a clone

So much flesh around me, bare
Heart beat, drum beat, intoxicant
I’m shredding up your diary
What’s in this song, stays in this song

This skin is a sin
This flesh is death
It feels like there is nothing left
Need something to take me away from here
I know it’s not the best
Want to let me id go
So damn tired of my ego
But where am I supposed to go?
When poor construction is all I know?
I want to spread you apart
No holding back, here’s where the fun starts
I want you as vulnerable
As I want to be
