The waters cold And the feelings gone away It wasn’t long before I met you All this time made it easier to stay And I repeat the lines of things I didn’t say Well we can forget it now Put it behind us now Sit back and live it out again Make it just one more round Im trying to hold you down Cause I can see you, I can see you I can see you, see you Drifting away
2.
You know I know And won’t say something You know I know And will say nothing at all I got an itch on my pinky finger tip Like a freshly healing stitch And it can make or break serenity I’m at the end I’m breaking free I’m breaking free I’m breaking free And you can almost taste the liberty I see it walking down the street I swear to god it’s mocking me And it’s so close that I can barely breathe And as you see it’s breaking me Anxiety has got me thinking so I’m making myself bleed Apart from everything inside my body that you took from me I never thought one thing remaining would be all my ingenuity And I’ve been sitting here waiting for calls We’re no more And it’s all your fault I just thought you should know There’s no one to catch your fall I know you know, and won’t say something I know you know, and will say nothing at all Because you’re callous And you’re too afraid to say it, That you broke the camel’s back apart And you’re too scared to admit it And I’ll attest that we’re doing fine And we’re free from all committed crimes I think it makes a better story if we dissipated, Crawling ever slowly, moving forward There’s no point in making such an ugly scene; a horror Keep it censored for the children Please my God we’re done And it’s all your fault I just thought you should know There’s nothing to catch your fall

I’m on fire, get the water, keep it coming Every moment you’re around me A mutual feeling, I’m a disaster Waiting to crash you, waiting to smash you, waiting to snatch you, baby   Hearing loss, came across as an oasis But wetter At a loss for words then I spit em out You’d better Figured I would wait till we’re higher Cause my voice is too shaky, shaky baby   Don’t test me out, I’m not store merchandise that you assume that you can pick up Don’t sell me out Reacting to a touch and burning out right after we fuck   You’ve got the right equation What’s that? Don’t know I’m just trying to make conversation You’re cute, not bad, but bad enough to cause mental persuasion And I’m afraid that we’re just at the beginning Slow down, speed up, I don’t know exactly what you are pushin Will it get me high, does it get me low, can I still make rational decisions? I’m sure your body will make every choice that it’s been diggin Let me set the tone, maybe we can bone, it’s too temperate inside this kitchen   Don’t test me out, I’m not store merchandise that you assume that you can pick up Don’t sell me out Reacting to a touch and burning out right after we fuck Waking up to a touch Waking up at a loss Don’t test me out, I’m not store merchandise that you assume that you can pick up Don’t sell me out Reacting to a touch and burning out right after we fuck

Love is more than solving all the fights More than what it takes to get to sleep at night And love is more than feeling safe and sound More than just a common ground Being lost and being found A verb and not a noun And love can take away your endless greed For shine things and apathy Replace it with security And love can make amends with history Never sacrificing honesty Or stepping on somebody knees Plant the seed We’ve been Using love for the power Using love for the gain Using love for the power And that’s not the way Using love for the shame Using love for the power And that’s not the way And that’s not the way And love is more than just a final goal More than one important role And love is not about who keeps the score Or who asks for more Or who shuts the door That’s not what love is for Using love for the power Using love for the shame Using love for the power Using love for the game Using love for the power Using love for the shame Using love Using love

I’ll stay in or go out But I’m scared that you’re around I remember you’re timbre clearly In the most familiar sounds The sound of a cigarette Consumed by pouring rain Collection of certain tones build memories Feels the same Sunny with snow Party with people we barely know I fell apart, I broke my hand But you broke my heart Somewhere along the line We got lost in ourselves oh my You couldn’t go back on what you said Because you really needed to stick to your guns this time Seasons change before my eyes And I don’t know why Sunshine sitting on my skin See the shadow of the moon Getting lost in the blue sky Scared the dreams might start again Sunny with snow Party with people we barely know I fell apart, I broke my hand But you broke my heart
