Say Anything – Sediment lyrics

[Verse 1]
The smell of your body
Is making me heed and gag
I thought you were candy
Just like in nature my good man

[Verse 2]
So now you can't leave me
Just like the rest of them did
As we sink into the East Bay Brooklyn dirge
Thank God I'm done with this

[Refrain]
Now we are the sediment
Now we are the sediment
Now we are the sediment
Now we are the sediment

[Verse 3]
So go ask your Chomsky
What these systems produce
The cracks in commandments
That we can slip through

[Verse 4]
You develop a callus
When you're being lied to
But now my pain is all just gravy
As you drown beneath the waves with me
And sing

[Refrain]
Now we are the sediment
Now we are the sediment
Now we are the sediment
Now we are the sediment

Sediment!

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Spoken Word Interlude]
I wake up with a humming glow of a hundred Percocets
I have the arms of a baby
Veins of an old lady
My vision is runny and profound
There's a still light we sit behind
You turn to me and ask if I'd like you to stay
But I didn't have anything here
I say "I should have dissolved in you
But I made us statistics
They can write us off
But I don't fucking deserve you"
You look confused
But after a very awkward pause
You kiss my cheek and then walk off
Left alone now I start to age backwards
And I'm viciously hungering for someone
To love me the way my parents never did
There must be someone who can somewhere
Maybe I'll take a walk and see
After all it's so big
It goes on and on and on and on and on and on and on
