lyrics

I woke up in a musky villa
Alone without myself
We don't have to wait until the sun is up
To recreate our bed dreams and make ourselves happy
We don't have to wait until the sun is up

I like to drive to synths late in the night
Fake bass and reverb make me freeze in time

I woke up at a stranger's bedside
Holding their hand tight
And I shouldn't have waited until the sun was up
Now I'm lending my comfort, helping them pass me on
And I pray to god let me haunt their bassinet

Synths don't hit the same way in the sunlight
Sunspots reverberate off my green eyes

I know I better be better at bein your bitter king
Don't fall asleep on me
And I know when morning comes I'll be back on my own
Just a lizard in the sun, sunbathing when I'm gone

I know I better be better at bein your bitter king
Don't fall asleep on me
And I know when morning comes I'll be back on my own
Just a lizard in the sun, sunbathing when I'm gone

My daddy's daddies' daddies
Were one big family
Their scales crooned heat that helped devise the earth
I stalk the nights and bedsides
The cool air hurts sometimes
But I hate to hunt when the sun is up

I like strings and dissonance in the daylight
Loud booms and screeches thaw me back to time
