Faberge Egg from Dopamine by Billy Puntton

Like a Faberge egg
protected with a layer of glad-wrap
fragile and beautiful
easily breakable
completely irreplaceable

in Christian faith an egg symbolises new life
but I don't think we want Jesus in our room at night
like a boogie man or the monster in your closet
like a boogie man or the monster in your closet

And I tried my very hardest
to save you from yourself
but you're just too fucking stubborn
and I was selfish with my time

And I can see that you're getting tired
of the grind to five and those sexist pigs at work
but you won't seek help
You're just too damn proud of your health

And I tried my very hardest
to save you from yourself
you're just too fucking stubborn
and I was selfish with my time

and I won't forget your face
it's nailed to my brain
like a tumour that's pulsating
it takes my dopamine away and

And I tried my very hardest
to save you from yourself
you're just too fucking stubborn
and I was selfish with my time
and I was selfish with my time
and I was selfish with my time

And I don't wanna die anymore
