Against the Kitchen Floor - Will Wood (LYRICS)

Lyrics - I don’t owe you my heart, and I don’t owe you my body But you should know that I’m sorry for being careless with you Lord knows I owed you more, than I’m pretty sure I ever could give anybody But I can’t pin down what normal people want from foreign objects Bottom-shelf erotic products like me So, I could hold your hand but keep you at arms’ length Oh, hang me from a branch too high to climb and shake Less rare than scarce, less diamond than rough Unlikely to be more than the coal you fail to crush I swear I’m really trying Get it together, Will, know and do better It just don’t come natural to me to think That you’d want me for me I swear I’m really trying I’m sorry, I promise, I’m doing my best I just haven’t learned how to be human as you are yet I still don’t know who you are. I only know that I’m still lonely That morbid sort where even company can’t cure me And the more you reassure the less I trust But still you gave me your heart, I only gave you my body Honestly thought nobody’d want it, let alone notice it’s Gone and so I left it home but now Now, now, now I keep a locket with a picture of the back of my head Oh, monkey-wrench my side view mirrors, ghost my friends I’ve lived more lives than enough, I haven’t died quite as much But I’m not a real person, just the shit you can’t make up I swear I’m really trying I’m just as exposed if I take off my clothes When we make the closest thing to love that I’m capable of I don’t know why you would care. But I’m really trying I’m sorry, I promise, I’m doing my best I just haven’t learned how to be human as you are yet Did I really Have any of that gravity? Maybe you’re quicksand Because I really couldn’t tell how deep my footprints went The vertex of my redemption arc, the searching of that virgin heart I’m catatonic in your arms, cryin’ “how did I cause so much harm?“ I’m down pounding my head against the kitchen floor Apologizing for my life and ever entering yours Don’t say “I’m sorry but this can’t go on“ I know you got scars of your own But hide my knives before you go, I’ll either live or die alone I swear I will die trying I’m still in the process but I’m making progress I promise I honestly want to prove improvement’s possible I swear I’m so fucking sorry I’m not a good person, I’m barely a person at all, but Someday I’ll be perfect and I’ll make up for it all Music and Image - Will Wood Video - Me
