lyrics

so this is that crushing weight that I've heard so much about
I've got to tear up all this pavement but it has to be well thought-out
hardened tar like a shell over my young eyes
slamming my face into the wall again tonight
trying to break the case
trying to escape and
the road is laced with something a lot more dangerous than I had imagined

tell me something good
show me something better
take me to the woods
then just drag me underwater

oh, oh
underwater
that's where I'll find her
oh

I might need yr help this time, you guys
'cause I can't seem to remember a single moment from my whole life
hardened tar like a shell over my young eyes
slamming my face into the wall again tonight
trying to break the case
trying to escape
and the road is laced with something a lot more dangerous than I had imagined

tell me something good
show me something better
take me to the woods
then just drag me underwater

consider this the intro to the book I'll never write;
consider this the intro to the book I start tonight;
I think to myself nobody will ever love you the way that I loved you
but I hope they do
I really, really do

"Autonomy" is one of the best F.O.A.D. songs in recent memory, big fat radio-ready hook and a vicious lyric. summer villain
