On the hottest day in the world I said to you a little word.
I didn't mean to get so lonely that you could see inside my bones.
It always goes high then low. You're my friend and then my foe.
It's a curse, it's the curse, and I did it on purpose.
It was bad but you made it worse.
You're so mean, you're so mean so I did it on purpose,
Just to see if you could be lonely too.
So hot so hot so hot so hot so hot,
I whispered it but I said it clear. It lives in air inside your ear
If you listen now you can hear the pressure ticking
Out from inside my lungs.
You always go so fast then slow. I can't keep up or I just keep going.
It's a curse, it's the curse, and I did it on purpose.
It was bad but you made it worse.
You're so mean, you're so mean so I did it on purpose,
Just to see if you could be lonely too.
Waiting for the storm. I'm waiting for loneliness to pour
On the hottest day I know. This is the hottest day I know.
So hot so hot so hot so hot so hot...
I wasn't bad, but it wasn't good. You didn't cry, but I wish you would.
I'm afraid of you as you ought to be of me, with my sticks and stones.
Time has pushed as far as it can go, and the sun's still high.
It's a curse, it's the curse, and I did it on purpose.
It was bad but you made it worse.
You're so mean, you're so mean so I did it on purpose,
Just to see if you could be lonely too.
