Penelope Scott – Sweet Hibiscus Tea Chords

Here’s the thing: I can’t do anything right.
Try as I absolutely totally might.
The bones are melting, the skeleton is ash.
The clavicle detaches and falls with a deafening crash.

And I’m not your protagonist, I’m not even my own.
I don’t know anything, I don’t even know what I don’t know.

And if you look outside you’ll see, disintegrating trees.
The artificial way the sunlight bounces off the waxy leaves.
My heart catches on every thorn, you’re already halfway out the door.
And I’ve never looked so old, and I have never been so cold.
And it is 85 degrees, I don’t know what I need.

There’s lukewarm herbal mango sweet hibiscus tea,
On the hot garbage pile in which I fucking sleep
The walls are empty, it’s so ugly, I could burn the whole place down
It wouldn’t catch ‘cause all the posters, are on their way to my hometown

And I’m not your protagonist, I’m not even my own.
I don’t know anything, I don’t even know what I don’t know.

And if you look outside you’ll see, disintegrating trees.
The artificial way the sunlight bounces off the glitching leaves.
My wet heart catches on every thorn, you’re already halfway out the door.
And I’m so tiny and so old, and God it’s never been so cold.
And it is 85 degrees, I don’t know what I need.
