A Sweet Person Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I mean, he's a sweet person
But I can't think of many things worse than the ones he does
And that's kinda messed up because
Everyone he does it to deserves it
There he was, bleedin' heart spurtin'
Layin' in the cut with the guts of a surgeon
Playin' it up though who knows for certain
Motivation's a heart determined

[Chorus 1]
You oughta see him when he's workin'
A fear and clear-eyed compersion
Blood in the water when the sharks are circlin'
Salt of the earth when he bursts to the surface

[Verse 2]
And I think he'd be perfect
If he weren't such an arrogant jerk, it's such a shame
Everybody knows it's just a game
But they can't even walk with a sense of purpose Then he came, runs like the furnace
Screamin' your name and your ears started burnin'
You know the ways of the world, it's turnin'
A million miles a day, okay, that's disturbing
[Chorus 2]
But we all feel worthless sometimes, we all get nervous
It's fine, we all act hurt and absurd, in the mouth a dessert
In the mind a liqueur, in the heart a [?]
We all play our parts in this circus
Just to get a glimpse behind the curtain

[Outro]
But all we see is recursion
Mirrors and mirrors and mirrors and we worship
We search and search but no meaning emerges
Just curses and serpents that hiss like your ex-girlfriend
No one wants to be alone when the world ends
So take a gamble on a sweet person
