Chlorine Bath Lyrics

I want to wake up in the evening
Shred my lips, bathe in chlorine
Bless your heart you sad thing
I donï¿½t want to be with you

I want to wake up in the evening
Shred my lips, bathe in chlorine
Bless your heart you sad thing
I donï¿½t want to be with you

You came along, followed my bum
Right through this maze
Strung out and stunned
Latched on to me, redded the dirt
I was your prey, hung up on her
But I donï¿½t want you, I donï¿½t need you

I want to wake up in the evening
Shred my lips, bathe in chlorine
Bless your heart you sad thing
I donï¿½t want to be with you

You butterfly, you seem to morph
You seem to bloom this caustic course
You chose yourself so burn in hell
You fleeting think, I chose myself
But Iï¿½m too proud and I donï¿½t need you

I want to wake up in the evening
Shred my lips, bathe in chlorine
Bless your heart you sad thing
I donï¿½t want to be with you

I want to wake up in the evening
Shred my lips, bathe in chlorine
Bless your heart you sad thing
I donï¿½t want to be with you

Our Sentence Is Up

I want to wake up in the evening
Shred my lips, bathe in chlorine 
Bless your heart you sad thing
I donï¿½t want to be with you

I want to wake up in the evening
Shred my lips, bathe in chlorine 
Bless your heart you sad thing
I donï¿½t want to be with you

You came along, followed my bum
Right through this maze
Strung out and stunned
Latched on to me, redded the dirt 
I was your prey, hung up on her
But I donï¿½t want you, I donï¿½t need you

I want to wake up in the evening
Shred my lips, bathe in chlorine 
Bless your heart you sad thing
I donï¿½t want to be with you

You butterfly, you seem to morph
You seem to bloom this caustic course
You chose yourself so burn in hell
You fleeting think, I chose myself 
But Iï¿½m too proud and I donï¿½t need you

I want to wake up in the evening
Shred my lips, bathe in chlorine 
Bless your heart you sad thing
I donï¿½t want to be with you

I want to wake up in the evening
Shred my lips, bathe in chlorine 
Bless your heart you sad thing
I donï¿½t want to be with you

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I feel like it should be "Shred my lids" instead of lips, referring to waking up... But who knows. The verses of this song are kind of confusing and not that great, but I really like the chorus and song in general.
