Nuclear Family Order

from Nails by Stevie Subrizi

/

lyrics

but you lay down the law, lay down the law
to maintain the nuclear family order
love's got nothing to do at all
with any of your marching orders

you call me waste
I take up space
I take my space without camouflage

so why do you
keep trying to
lock my true form up in the garage?

you wag your jaw and wag your jaw
and maintain the nuclear family order
but love's got nothing to do at all
with the nuclear family order

the holidays
were not a phase
not for me, though you could always change

if your love is real
this is the deal:
take me as I am, or always be estranged
take me as I really am, or be estranged
