lyrics
Maxwell, sit down, I'm a liar.
it hurts me, so honestly called out.
if I'm honest will I have to stay longer?
there's stuff I don't wanna tell the doctor.
Dr. Chopper, I bleed in front of you.
can you hear my heart beat?
Suzy, sit down, I been at it.
I get lonely when I'm bored of feeling happy.
if I'm honest, I hate the machine.
it keeps me up like a square peg, I'm upright.
I'm a radio soap star opera.
I'm a cowboy for my grandmother.
Grammie, sit down, I'm Catholic.
I found God in a court room, he loves me.
if I'm honest, I scare myself shitless.
I don't know what to do with all the wreckage.
Dr. Chopper, I bleed in front of you.
can you hear my heart beat?
I'm a radio soap star opera
for my grandmother.
you're not my dad, so tell my father
there's a guy I don't talk to any longer.
there's a girl, I really want to love her.
if I'm honest, I'm still scared of the doctor.
I'm a radio soap star opera.
