lyrics

Custom song for Sarah Alexander

Gotta get my nose out of old photographs
And my attachment to the past
Frustration is my mating call for shadows to fill me
For someone else to wipe my ass

Who will I reject to protect my heart?
How can I maintain the upper hand?
I’ve created this laziness in my field
Cause I don’t care for myself the way I can

But I do love to fly
No stakes, no brakes, just delight in my desires tonight
Delight in my desires tonight

Gotta be on top or I’m not my best
Also got a taste for human flesh
Got a button in me set to destroy
Yes, I will burn it all down and make a mess

Have you seen this genius, my other part?
My vulnerable, soft, open heart
Powerful beyond belief, believing what I don’t yet see
Nothing to prove, no one to be

Cause I do love to fly
No stakes, no brakes, just delight in my desires tonight
Delight in my desires tonight

I do not care if the future is loomin’
Ima get off on killin the human
The part of me that needs to be better
I’m gonna get her

I will not stop I will not break a sweat
Cause anything I want, yeah I know I will get
I will fly like a bullet train into the fire
And you can love me, but it’s not required

Cause I do love to fly
No stakes, no brakes, just delight in my desires tonight
Delight in my desires tonight

Cause I get what I want
What I want isn’t always clear
But I know and I go
Towards the power and never towards the fear
