letra de tar - xyta

[verse]
there’s black tar in my stomach from
the diet coke and gum
oh and there’s black tar from the cigarettes
clogging up my lungs
all the lead and the formaldehyde
looks at me like a gun
staring down the coiled barrel
hissing, pleading take me home

all the clippings of my finger nails
are frayed from all the glue
and my heart beats twice a second from
the caffeine i consume
and my t–th are chipped and yellowed from
the metal that i chew
and my brain is full of microplastics
purple green and blue

[chorus]
and i’m pure
just like lake michigan
i’m sure of myself
like a newborn kitten
and i’ve learned that loving is a sk!ll
and i’ve spent my life in training
all the jokes i tell are funny
if you’ve only got the patience
[verse]
i’ve got bruises on my elbows
and scr-pes on both my knees
i have stretch marks on my belly
and scars on both my cheeks
can’t tell if my feet are flat or arched
but they k!ll me either way
and my knees creak when i walk around
my back hurts just the same

[chorus]
and i’m pure
like city air
oh i’m sure of myself
like an empty prayer
and if loving is a test
maybe i’ve spent my whole life failing
but what sk!ll worth learning doesn’t take
a little bit of patience

[bridge]
i’m open like a flower
blow my dandelion seeds
i am open like a wound
baby i bleed and bleed and bleed
[chorus]
but i’m pure
all jokes aside
i am sure of myself
most of the time
loving is a gift, love is a sk!ll, love tests my patience
but i’ll take it as it comes
‘cause what am i if not too gracious?
