Lyrics
I don't usually run, always seem to hide
I avoid confrontation and tend to conceal myself
You skip the formalities, formaldehyde
You disregard formalities, suggesting a preservation method (formaldehyde)
I feel and I don't feel my body's mine
I experience a disconnect, unsure if my body truly belongs to me
Washing my skin but water trickles inside
Cleansing my skin, but vulnerabilities persist beneath the surface
I don't usually run, always seem to hide
Reiteration of avoiding confrontation and hiding
You skip the formalities, formaldehyde
Reiteration of dismissing formalities and the concept of preservation
I feel and I don't feel my body's mine
Reiteration of feeling detached from one's own body
Washing my skin but water trickles in
Continuing the cleansing process, but vulnerability persists
I can feel the soap under her fingernails
Sensory awareness of soap beneath fingernails, possibly indicating intimacy
I can feel the way she purses her lips
Perception of specific details in someone's expression and actions
I can hear the words she wants to say but
Hearing unspoken words, followed by a suggestion of potential misunderstanding
Maybe she was asking for it
Suggesting a controversial or uncomfortable situation, raising questions
My face contorts as I force laughter
Attempting to mask discomfort with forced laughter
But it turns into a coughing fit
The laughter transforms into a coughing fit, a metaphor for internal turmoil
Sorry, I'm not feeling too well but
Apologizing for not feeling well, perhaps referencing emotional distress
Maybe I was asking for it
Suggesting a potential role in the discomfort, questioning responsibility
No, don't say it
Repeated pleas to refrain from saying something, emphasizing sensitivity
No, don't say it
-No, don't say it
-No, don't say it
-I don't usually run, always seem to hide
-You skip the formalities, formaldehyde
-I feel and I don't feel my body's mine (Maybe she was asking for it)
-I don't usually run, always seem to hide (No, don't say it)
-You skip the formalities, formaldehyde (No, don't say it)
-I feel and I don't feel my body's mine (I can hear the words she wants to say but)
-Maybe she was asking for it (No, don't say it)
-No, don't say it
-No, don't say it
-No, don't say it
-No, don't say it
-No, don't say it
-No, don't say it
-No, don't say it
-No, don't say it (Maybe she was, maybe she was)
Reiterating the caution against saying something, with a reflective note on past events
