issues

when you call it�s so immediate
you want me wet and all I�m donning
is your fancy dress socks, my eyes crossed
you overwhelm me and I can�t get enough

I�m leaving bruises on my arms again
I don�t even care who sees me wearing them
does it make it worse if it�s intentional?
mutilation to release the emotional damage

would you even miss me?
I just want to feel relevant
I know something is missing
there�s an absence when you kiss me

breaking mirrors in my bathroom
exploding glass and perfume
try to focus on what I�m worth
easier done when I can�t see the dirt

my heart is dragging by a cord
eating the mess up off your floor
don�t you want to pick it up?
I�ve almost had enough

you�re a fever dream and I�m dying
sip these chemicals now I�m lying
to myself and we�ve both got issues
I�m running out of tissues but I miss you

so I keep hanging by the phone
it rings and your name isn�t on the screen
I don�t know why I bother trying
it�s the sex that I�m relying on

you�re just another ghost
you�re just another ghost
you�re just another ghost
you�re just another ghost
