Everything's Bigger - Speedy Ortiz

The lion’s just like me

He’s a twin, and I was a twin

Although his twin grew up

So I must join the stage of

Awful singles hyperventilating

We head up to Vermont for a couple days

You say the name of a state when horror’s underway

So you might escape back to a place where horror stays away

Still, you might escape

Me, I’m just like my wife

She’s a blade and I’m a dull knife

Turned up in a bouquet

And we get red for days

Soaking through our silk and unbathed

We head up to Vermont

And I don’t know whose call it was that I should share a life

With someone who resembles me and copies my speech

Down to every lisp and slur I practiced to put on

It’s hard to keep a dialect when you keep changing where you come from

And that’s a place where horrors fade away

So you might escape back to a place where horror fades away

Still you might escape back to a place where horrors underway

So you might escape back to a place where horror stays away

Still, you might escape

Guess I could just get set up with someone’s got my given name
