lyrics

Curl up
Night sky ignites the fauna by your shrub
Lean in, balance, not yet calloused
Who will protect you from the monsters and the mud?

Abandon post
Clinging to the tailbone of your host
Dissipated, godforsaken
“You will learn to live alone now, you will like it”

You will learn to live alone now, you will like it
You will learn to take control and you will spite it
We all yearn to live alone now, we invite it
You, in turn, will be alone, are you excited?

Toughen up
You are healthy, you are strong, you are enough
Toughen up
You are healthy, you are strong, you are enough
