I'd Rather from GLAM by meelie bones

I thought I wanted to die
But I played chicken with the universe, and the universe won
The fear inside my eyes
When I stared right down the barrel of that medication’s gun
And now I’m crying
‘Cause the pain is gone, and I’m restless, and there’s nothing else to do
I guess the universe was trying
To show me how it feels to shatter every part of you

I think about Elias
And I think about your dad
And I think about our partners and the life that we could have
And I’d rather do that

I’ve done this once before
In the end it’s a mistake that only time travel could fix
I felt a little sore
From beating myself up when having thoughts like this

I never thought about growing old, ‘cause I’d die at seventeen
I’d have some tragic accident, or I’d just run out of steam
But now all I want are senior discount movie tickets, please
With our fun found family

I think about Elias
And I think about your dad
And I think ‘bout going dormant, but it always makes me sad
And I think about the future, and I’m always feeling trapped
But I think about our partners and the life that we could have
And I’d rather do that

I’m living
I’m breathing
Can’t believe it
I’m defeating my demons, I’m alive
I'm alive

Cool. ...2, 3, 4.

If I was rolling in the dirt, just a little guy
If I lost all of my features, no lips no ears no eyes
Oh baby would you hold me when I start to squirm
Yeah boy would you still love me if I was a worm?

[Lux]
