Woozy
hot milk Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Please release me from this perfect paranoia
I fucked up
And let it happen again (ah, fuck)
Purposely pushing pins, penetrating painfully
Sertraline got me feeling woozy
I fucked up
And oh, I′m alone
So low
I'm hazy, come save me
I can′t move, I'm going under
Sour sights have ripped away my thunder
I fucked up
And let it happen again (again)
I'm a whiplash, car crash, riot in the aftermath
Bad dreams, unclean, poison in the vaccine
I fucked up
And let it happen again
And oh, I′m alone
So low
I′m hazy, come save me
I never thought I'd be a masochist
I swear down I never asked for this
The plastic thrills of pills devolve to be
My anarchy
The dizzy heights and the blurry sights
Addictive, but they hurt just right
The only thing that feels like home to me
Is my anarchy
And oh, I′m alone
Ooh, I'm so low
I′m hazy, come save me
Fucked it up again
Plastic thrills and pills dissolving
Can't stop myself, it′s like I'm starving
Feels like home to me
My anarchy

@gabrielaescobar1814
I hate when the song finishes so fast, it deserves to last longer because it's so good!!!
@MixedApparitions
Literally..... this song is WAY too short. It only has one chorus! This is maybe my favourite song by Hot Milk, I've been listening to it nonstop for the past week. In my head all day. I wish it was longer.
@coyotecody132
You're so right. They should do more songs in the future that are longer than 2 minutes.
