lyrics

Sour Patch Kid

Why so quiet?
Kitty got your tongue?
Please say something
Yeah, it's been along time

It's no secret
You don't have to pretend
It's a sour patch kid
But it's sweet in the end

What are you reading?
What is your story?
Are you bah bah black sheep?
Or Hikikomori?

I don't know what to tell you
But I've been there too
Damned if I don't
Damned if I do
I can't get through

Why so quiet?
Kitty got your tongue?
Please say something
Yeah, it's been along time

It's no secret
You don't have to pretend
It's a sour patch kid
But it's sweet in the end

How are you sleeping?
The pills are candy coating
Where's your fortune cookie?
How's your future going?

I don't know what to tell you
But I've been there too
Damned if I know
Damned if I knew
I still can't get through

Why so quiet?
Kitty got your tongue?
Please say something
Yeah, it's been along time

It's no secret
You don't have to pretend
It's a sour patch kid
But it's sweet in the end

What are you reading?
What is the story?
Are you bah bah black sheep?
Or Hikikomori?

I don't know what to tell you
But I've been there too
Damned if I don't
Damned if do

Why so quiet?
Kitty got your tongue?
Please say somethings
Yeah, it's been along time

It's no secret
You don't have to pretend
It's a sour patch kid
But it's sweet in the end
