RITUAL

(What if I want to have sex before I get married?)
(Well, I guess you just have to be prepared to die)

My inner child needs a bulletproof vest
And a phone that can't text and twenty years rest
Build a bomb shelter, bite a belt for the stress
Never know what's next, next
Sleeping with my clothes on in case shit goes wrong
Gotta clear my front lawn off
Sleeping with my clothes on in case shit goes wrong
Gotta clear my front lawn

Melatonin, eyes feel heavy tonight
I could sleep for weeks and speak in Z's
Don't look for me (don't look for me)

They're killing me when I'm fast asleep
Are you hearing me when I say you're bleeding me out
With all the things you don't say
I'm living fucking betrayed
Living like I'm dead and on my own
They're killing me when I'm fast asleep
(Like a ritual)

(Yeah) my inner child needs a bulletproof vest
And a phone that can't text and twenty years rest
Build a bomb shelter, bite a belt for the stress
Never know what's next (next)
Sleeping with my clothes on in case shit goes wrong
Gotta clear my front lawn off
Sleeping with my clothes on in case shit goes wrong
Gotta clear my front lawn

Melatonin, eyes feel heavy tonight
I could sleep for weeks and speak in Z's
Don't look for me (don't look for me)

They're killing me when I'm fast asleep
Are you hearing me when I say you're bleeding me out
With all the things you don't say
I'm living fucking betrayed
Living like I'm dead and on my own
They're killing me when I'm fast asleep
(Like a ritual)

(Seven, six, five, four, three)

My inner child needs a bulletproof vest
And a phone that can't text and twenty years rest
Build a bomb shelter, bite a belt for the stress
Never know what's next
Sleeping with my clothes on in case shit goes wrong
Gotta clear my front lawn off
Sleeping with my clothes on in case shit goes wrong
Gotta clear my front lawn off

(Shut the fuck up)
