Life of the Spider (Draft) - Halsey

It's 4 in the morning

And I'm laying with my head against the toilet seat

For several days now I've been living here

Too tired to sleep too sick to eat

I feel like a monster and it doesn't help that

You will treat me like I've got the venom in my teeth

'Cause I'm the spider in your bathroom

I'm the shadow on the tile

I came for shelter from the cold and I thought I'd stay a while

I'm only small I'm only weak

And you jump at the sight of me

You'll kill me when I least expect it

God how could I even think of

Daring to exist

Looking just like this

I'm hideous

I'm nothing but legs they used to say

I'm nothing but skin and bones these days

You dangle me high over the drain

And tell me I'm lucky you don't drop me there and

Let me wash away

Or put me on display

By trapping me forever between a glass and a dinner plate

'Cause I'm the spider in your kitchen

Weaving webs through every year

And I worked real hard on the last one

But the last one got me here

I'm minding my own business

But my presence makes you curse

I should be getting better but I'm only getting worse

And God how dare I even think of choosing here to die

'Cause then I'm just a problem that you have to take outside

And I know you hate the sight of me

I haunt you when you're fast asleep

I've got eight legs a million eyes

If only I had eight more lives

'Cause I'm the spider on the ceiling

And you're nothing but a guy

You don't like it when I cry

You would break me if you tried

And you will

Because I dare to be alive
