On Purpose

from Loves You by MADAM WEST

about

Light & dark thoughts battling.

lyrics

How to kill a part of me
The one that fancies, the one that needs
How to kill a part of me
Paranoia, fantasy and in between

Aah...

Stomach full but mind is growling
Heart is full but falling asleep
And my writing's far too serpentine
What no one gets will never keep

Aah...

How to kill a part of me
That's mired in selfish, circular woe
Rip the seams and pull it slack
Treat it like a band-aid and never look back

Aah..
Focus on the simple, uh-huh
Focus on the same, uh-huh
Focus on the beauty, keep yourself moving, keep yourself
Whole, whole, whole
Whole, whole, whole
Aah...

Kill whatever makes you suffer
And struggle, and screw up
And banter and weep
Kiss it softly, kiss it sweetly
Tuck it in bed and put it to sleep

Aah...
Focus on the simple, uh-huh
Focus on the same, uh-huh
Focus on the beauty, keep yourself moving, keep yourself
Whole, whole, whole
Whole, whole, whole
Aah...
Aah...
