Screw Loose
Lime Cordiale Lyrics

Get a rise from anybody who would care
You crave attention from anyone who would give it to you

You hate it, you love it, you'd fake your fucking death
You have an extreme love-hate relationship with life and you would do anything to escape it

Running out of spanks when you finally get caught
You're getting away with things for now, but eventually, you'll run out of luck

Turn it into a little argument that's not what you've been taught
You try to twist things into your own version of reality to justify your actions, even if they go against your upbringing

You don't do what your mama ever says
You rebel against authority figures, especially your mother's advice

You never stay inside and refuse to go to bed
You have a hard time following rules and boundaries, even when it comes to your own health

Climbing out the window of your bedroom, see you later
You have a tendency to escape from life's responsibilities and consequences

To the people of the night, got a light, ciggie paper?
You're seeking out like-minded individuals who enable your self-destructive behavior

This magical abyss you somehow think you're fine
You're in denial about the negative impact your behavior is having on your mental health

But you are fooling no one, 'bout to pop and lose your mind
Your behavior is becoming increasingly erratic and it's obvious to those around you that you're not okay

It all goes straight through ya
You're not truly processing the consequences of your actions

Nothing left to lose
You're so far gone that you have no inhibitions or concern for your well-being

This confidence it'll fool ya
Your overconfidence in your ability to handle your self-destructive behavior will lead to your downfall

When you're drowning in the booze
You're numbing your pain with alcohol and it's only making things worse

I've seen you dressed up at a party
You put on a facade of having your life together when in reality you're falling apart

But you hardly kick start it
You're not truly enjoying life even when you're trying to

And your friends are aiming at you instead of hitting pinatas
Your friends see through your facade and are becoming frustrated with your behavior

Your life's a violet crumble
Your life is chaotic and crumbling

You're flakey and you're dark
Your behavior is inconsistent and unpredictable, adding to others' frustration with you

And even your own mother doesn't know who you are
Your loved ones are struggling to understand your behavior as it becomes more and more erratic

You're backed into a corner with no date and no friends
Your actions are isolating you from your loved ones and making it hard for you to form new relationships

You're the bottom of a beer that no one likes in the end
Your behavior is not endearing you to others and they're growing tired of it

Like a ghost drinking juice
You're not truly processing the consequences of your actions

You're competent, but babe, I'm stepping out of these boots
You might think you're fine, but I can see how your behavior is affecting you and I'm choosing to distance myself

Gotta cut the screws
You need to let go of your self-destructive habits and tendencies

Gotta cut the screws loose
You need to break free from the hold your self-destructive behavior has on you

Nothing left to lose
You're so far gone that you have no inhibitions or concern for your well-being

You got a screw loose
Your behavior is so self-destructive that it's becoming a problem for yourself and those around you
