lyrics

Scared of Saturday night
And scared of the mess it makes
I saw my blood in the dishwater
I saw it separate

Scared of Saturday night
And scared of the mess it makes
I saw my blood in the dishwater
I saw it separate
From the suds and the crumbs
And the draining water
And the knives and the cans of beans

I saw my blood in the dishwater
I saw it separate
Separate
Separate
My thoughts
My thoughts
I’ve gotta separate

Scared of Saturday night
And scared of the mess I make
I dragged my blood over all their towels
And I flushed and I spit in the drain

Went out into the pouring rain
They were hanging out
And smoking cigarettes there
And I bummed one and took a drag

Some guy asked me why I was so bloody
And I could not answer him
Answer this
Answer this
My thoughts
My god
I’ve gotta answer this
Gotta answer this

I stumbled back to the bonfire
And I sat down and looked at my phone
I heard “Blackbird” and the Allman Brothers
From some guys playing acoustic guitars
And I drank a solo cup of water
And I laughed at Marvin’s dumb jokes
I wiped my hands of blood on the grass
And I stared right back to fire

Scared of Saturday night
And scared of the mess it makes
I saw my blood in the dishwater
I saw it separate
