Description

Released on: 2025-05-12

Lyrics and translation

Original

Knew when I felt it hit.

Stood in the park under the eclipse.

It was only a field trip.

'Til it cooled my blood.

That's how it tends to start.

You're in the light, then you're in the dark.

Then someone throws a flare. You tasted my underwear. I knew we were fucked.

My bed is on fire.

Mama, I'm so scared.

Don't know how to come back.

Once I get out, on the edge.

He's spitting in my mouth like he's saying a prayer.

But now I'm crying on the phone. Swearing nothing's wrong. Blame it on.

Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh. Car in a face.

Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh. Car in a face.

Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh. All alone in my room.

Watching the tape of their honeymoon.

On a boat, it was pure and true.

Then the film came out.

Hope that we can ignore.

Voices we hear through the open door.

Would you dive to the ocean floor?

Just to take my pearl.

'Cause my bed is on fire. My bed is on fire. Mama, I'm so scared. Mama,

I'm so scared. Were you ever like this? Were you ever like this?

Once you went out, on the edge. He's spitting in my mouth like he's saying a prayer.

But now I'm crying on the phone. Swearing nothing's wrong. Blame it on.

Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh.

Car in a face.

But now I'm high enough to know. Yeah, I think he's gone. Blame it on.

Uh, uh, uh, uh. Car in a face.

Car in a face.

Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh.

Car in a face.
