My only lingering obsession
Hunting me down each day
Down each day
Is that I'm always willful to see
What was never there
Never there
Like a fork in the road
It eats me up
When things get steered up on the way again
I'll ride the bayou
Then I'll find
That it goes from to cold to hot to cold to hot to cold
And i'll swim it through
Push it through
See it through
Fuck it through and
Fuck the mess away
Is it when I put my thick skin back on
That you notice that you've had me out here in the trenches
Be what you never
What you never
Mean (to be)
Be what you never mean to be
My only lingering obsession
Keeping it cool
Keeping it smooth
Keeping it loose
Why do I feel surprised
When it goes from hot to cold to hot to cold to hot to cold
Cause it goes from hot to cold to hot to cold to hot to cold
Always goes from hot to cold to hot to cold to hot to cold
Being what you never what you never mean (to be)
Being what you never
Is it when I put my thick skin back on
That you notice that you've had me out here in the trenches
I'll ride the bayou
Then I'll find
I'll ride the bayou
