Sleeping Dogs - Hey Sad, I'm Dad

from FEEL EVERYTHING SPLIT by Treehouses

/

lyrics

Yeah I taste like I'm new
But I break just like old
x2

I wish that my hours of peeling were so fruitful
But my only horrifying discovery is that teeth bite back
And that people's innermost secrets are just that
There is no mystery to be solved
And you can never truly know anyone
But I keep peeling and finding sharp teeth and getting hurt and grabbing another ripe from the tree
And I peel and I peel and I peel

I'm feeling again
Like I need to sleep for a thousand years
x2

I thought maybe I'd feel new, maybe I'd feel different, like the face in the mirror would be of a stranger so I'd never have to pass by my same mistakes again
But all that's different is my reflection and the way I look at things of the past
This hatred is a disguise but who am I hiding from if not myself?
I wish I could know what's inside people's minds and I do, more than most, but a lot of the time I feel like Pi when he finds the island with fruit only to make the horrifying discovery of a human tooth within
Hard to break, unknowable
I'm feeling again like I need to sleep for a thousand years
