lyrics
I stay so busy,
I am making myself sick.
I'm so tired of my complaining;
indecision, bitterness.
I've got this feeling,
And it's spreading like a bruise:
If I'd’ve known being grown
was aching, I'd've said,
“God, what's the use?”
Everything ugly
Comes to the surface;
But I say I'm doing fine
Everything ugly
Says without purpose:
“You're wasting all your time”
I made a long list
of the people I had fucked;
pathetically, I whispered to myself:
“This isn't long enough”
All my exes: having children;
getting married, buying homes.
I can’t even keep a promise;
how do people fall in love?
Everything ugly
Comes to the surface;
But I say I'm doing fine
Everything ugly
Says without purpose:
“You're wasting all your time.”
Everything ugly, everything ugly,
I say I'm doing fine.
Everything ugly, boring and dirty,
It's bitter and unkind.
Everything ugly, tries to destroy me,
But I swear I'm doing fine.
Everything ugly, everything ugly.
Everything ugly, everything ugly,
I say that I'm alright.
Everything ugly, boring and dirty,
It's bitter and unkind.
Everything ugly, tries to destroy me,
But I swear I'm doing fine.
Everything ugly, everything ugly:
I swear I'm doing fine.

I'm rarely in awe. High Horse set something right in my brain that had been wrong for a while. Unexpected beauty, even in the ugly truths we have to face. modestwriggles
