Newts Lyrics

I woke up in a musky villa

Alone without myself

We don't have to wait until the sun is up

To recreate our bed dreams and make ourselves happy

We don't have to wait until the sun is up

I like to drive to synths late in the night

Fake bass and reverb make me freeze in time

I woke up at a stranger's bedside

Holding their hand tight

And I shouldn't have waited until the sun was up

Now I'm lending my comfort, helping them pass me on

And I pray to god let me haunt their bassinet

Synths don't hit the same way in the sunlight

Sunspots reverberate off my green eyes

I know I better be better at bein your bitter king

Don't fall asleep on me

And I know when morning comes I'll be back on my own

Just a lizard in the sun, sunbathing when I'm gone

I know I better be better at bein your bitter king

Don't fall asleep on me

And I know when morning comes I'll be back on my own

Just a lizard in the sun, sunbathing when I'm gone

My daddy's daddies' daddies

Were one big family

Their scales crooned heat that helped devise the earth

I stalk the nights and bedsides

The cool air hurts sometimes

But I hate to hunt when the sun is up

I like strings and dissonance in the daylight

Loud booms and screeches thaw me back to time
