Car Seat Headrest - Unforgiving Girl (She's Not An) Lyrics

What a glorious hell we have found until I recognize the sound
Of my voice again
For years I hadn't had a clue, but suddenly I can look through
Your eyes again

This isn't sex, I don't think, it's just extreme empathy
She's not my ex, we never met, but do you still think of me?

They say that the world is one, but if the world is one
How come you never come around anymore?
I guess it's not that simple

Well, everyone learns to live with their sins
But girl you wear yours like a brand new skin
So take it all off and let me back in
To your...

It's an unforgiving world
But she's not an unforgiving girl

(creaturarum omnium officina)
Welcome to the workshop
Lesson number one:
Nothing stays but the chorus
(nullius creaturae expers)
But she moves and
She speaks and
She's on a chain that moves towards perfection
Baby, the effects are so good these days, if there were gears behind those big brown
Eyes, I wouldn't be able to tell the difference

Oh, girl
You know you got to be forgiving in a world like this

It's a small world
And you know you got to come see me sooner or later, girl you know I know...

Well, everyone learns to live with themselves
And you're not the only one who's been through hell
So give me a sign that I'm not making love to myself

It's an unforgiving world
But she's not an unforgiving girl
