[Verse 1]

Just because I love your skin

Doesn't mean I'll jump in

The water's clean and warm and green

I'm not allowed to swim

I'm scared of getting in

[Bridge]

Batteries and Holy Ghosts

Buried in my bag of bones

She said they would help me to grow

Said feeding the stomach is feeding the soul

[Verse 2]

Spider web and harlequins

Wrapped around your sticky wings

It's pretty, but it's hurting like hell

'Cause I know that I'm unwell

My body's made of shell

And I know that you can tell

[Bridge 2]

Beat me at my own damn game

Fucking with my goddamn brain

Now I will never win again

Better to love than to have and to hold

[Verse 3]

I heard that you like to swim

Doesn't mean I'm gonna jump in

But I'll put on my swimming set

'Cause I know I'm going to get wet

I know I'm going to get wet

I know I'm going to get wet

[Verse 1]

Just because I love your skin

Doesn't mean I'll jump in

The water's clean and warm and green

I'm not allowed to swim

I'm scared of getting in
