Holding Hands Songtext
von Self Neglect

Walking through your old neighborhood
You think how lucky you are to be forgotten
How blessed to be anonymous
So glad to no longer be a part of this


Connection is hell, and I won′t rebuild
At least the ruins aren't a tool for some other mind to take advantage of
I′m tired of coercion
I'm tired of lies
I'm tired of playing nice
I′d rather chew off my own leg than be trapped here with you

I will forgive so that you will stop
So I can move on and live a life again

Couldn′t deconstruct the state
We shot insults at friends and lovers instead
Hands holding and holding hands back
Conceal your mistakes instead of learn from the past
Hurting each other in intimate ways and putting that hurt on display
And so I tore at my face like an animal


I just can't face the consequence
Eyes still wet from the consequence
