A Slight Discomfort

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I thought you're through with all the bougie guys.

Don't you wonder about the other side?

They only get invited because they think that they might buy.

Ain't it sad about those metro guys?

Don't it hurt to watch them moisturize?

They're never funny and they're all so scared to die.

We're not afraid.

We have our faith.

We've even scattered action and we've mostly come out

unscathed.

We'll be alright.

We'll get through the night.

Our struggle still feels wonderful most days.

Most days.

Don't it suck about the suicide?

The bloodsuckers and the parasites.

They're never funny and they're all so scared to die.

All the small talk seems like suicide.

The spiderwebs with their legs and eggs and eyes

They creep up from behind.

If I were you I wouldn't get too close.

I've seen how they eat and it gets pretty gross.

They slip their tongue and they bitch on to their host.

We're not afraid.

We have our faith.

Seen a couple slaughters and they've mostly turned out OK.

We'll be alright.

We'll get through the night.

Our struggle still feels wonderful most days.

Hey New York City.

I love it when you turn on your lights.

Our struggle still feels wonderful tonight.

And you say you're a princess

But I remain unconvinced

I've seen the guys that you've been with

They don't much like princes

And you say you're much better

But I don't quite believe it

I saw the girls that you came with

I saw the guy that you left with

And you say you tried Jesus but it was too inconvenient

You just didn't have the patience

You say you said prayers but it felt like there was nobody there

I didn't think that you'd get it

This shouldn't hurt

But you might feel a slight discomfort

This shouldn't hurt

But you might feel a slight discomfort

This shouldn't hurt

But you might feel a slight discomfort

This shouldn't hurt

But you might feel a slight discomfort
