cryptid (mothman) Songtext
von ratwyfe

Do you ever wonder why I
Only show up in blurry photographs?
Why I feel I have to hide
When other′s perceptions give me panic attacks?

So when I am out, I'm out behind trees
I′ll hide in the forest where I can be free
Maybe to you, it sounds a little strange

But maybe I can't be a supermodel skinny, kinda pretty girl
Maybe I wanna be a cryptid
Maybe I don't want to exist in this world
When everyone′s comments turn into scars
And everyone lies and says, "Be who you are"
What if I wanna be a cryptid?
Maybe my ideal body is Bigfoot′s

Do you think that I'd still hate my body
If I grew wings and disappeared into the sky?
I don′t think anybody's words would matter
When I can swoop down and kill them from 30 feet high


So when I feel sad, I′ll screech in the night
Confuse all my neighbors or give them a fright
Then wonder why they think I'm a little strange

Maybe I can′t be a supermodel skinny, kinda pretty girl
Maybe I wanna be a cryptid, maybe I don't want to exist in this world
When everyone's comments turn into scars
And everyone lies and says, "Be who you are"
What if I wanna be a cryptid?
Maybe my ideal body is Mothman′s

Lately, I′ve been putting the 'cry′ in cyptid
Wishing I could melt into swamps
Beady red eyes can't see beauty standards
And stealing someone′s skin would hide all my flaws

Maybe I can't be a supermodel skinny, kinda pretty girl
Maybe I wanna be a cryptid, maybe I don′t want to exist in this world
When everyone's comments turn into scars
And everyone lies and says, "Be who you are"
What if I wanna be a cryptid?
Maybe my ideal body is Mothman's
