Georgia McDonald - Flesh & Electricity lyrics

[Verse 1] Each day, I ride my bike to the hospital Walk around, check vital signs, and pretend to be useful Sometimes, though, I really don't know what I'm doing here My father says it's atonement for my reckless years Like the antagonist from that book For that cla** that I once took [Chorus] I've been desensitized to the human body That I could look at you naked And all I'd see would be anatomy You're just bones and insecurity Flesh and electricity to me [Verse 2] Each night, I try to find that feeling in my bed The two-dimensional happiness When you live your life through a camera lens People stick together and they pull themselves apart Dehydration, separation, like the chambers of my heart And then the weight fell off like clothes Never knowing where it goes [Chorus] I've been desensitized to the human body That I could look at you naked And all I'd see would be anatomy You're just bones and insecurity Flesh and electricity to me [Bridge] Tearing labels off your bottles in a living room Feeling nothing, wanting nothing Because that part of me left with you Now, I plan my day around the eight and twelve medication rounds There are no shocks or surprises No, it's nothing like that [Chorus] ‘Cause I've been desensitized to the human body That I could look at you naked And all I'd see would be anatomy You're just bones and insecurity Flesh and electricity like me
