Behind closed doors we’re dying of thirst
Finders keepers now I am the weeper
Now I am the loser who’s come undone
Follow the leader delirium
How many licks does it take to get to the top
You better know just what you want
Before you open your mouth, before saliva drips out
Sobering in the morning light
Lower me, I’ve earned your spite
Knowing that it was my design
You scream and shake me
Nothing can save me
Sobering in the morning light
Lower me, I’ve earned your spite
Knowing that I lost my mind
This thing inside me, it terrifies me
And I feel it lurk down in the depths of me
Fighting a fever
Now I’m a believer that you get what you deserve
And I’m covered in chaos
Didn’t know I had it in me, didn’t know I had it in me
Been covered in chaos
And no one sees me for who I used to be now

It’s all fun & maybe it’s all games
Another easy breeze until someone’s bough breaks
Here you stand snapped in half
Raise the stakes and have the final laugh
Stay away from me I’m leaning on nostalgia
And it seems I’ve been on a winning streak
If you outlash me be careful as your cradle spirals to the ground
Cold hard disregard closing in, wearing you down
Even the air around you is thick in your dreams
Digging deep into the wounds you can’t see
How will you heal
How will you reveal them when it’s time for you to concede
I feel like starting over x2
Don’t you even know your heart won’t turn to gold
Don’t you even know your heart won’t turn to gold when it’s been stone
Alarm bells ring signaling the need to slow down
Always on the move cause you never learned how to hold still
Chasing a thrill
Feel the rush until your weakness spills
Don’t be so rough this is fragile, a delicate force
You’re not a child anymore
Feed the urgency
I’m running out of patience and you need to find what you’re looking for
Don’t you even know your heart won’t turn to gold
Don’t you even know your heart won’t turn to gold when it’s been stone
When it’s been stone
Don’t you even know your heart won’t turn to gold when it’s been stone

Your crystal ball is dropping into my lap, I feel it tenfold
Heavy and cracked, don't understand how you read the future it's told
But it's clear through the spider webs that you steer us into the lion's den
Into jaws our reason blends with a looming sense of fear and dread
It's your luck
Take it, don't leave it behind
Your fault I'll never be fine
You spew your prophecies at me and I heat them up, I eat them up
It's your luck
Why do you take it this far
You know better than that
You spew your prophecies at me and I heat them up, I eat them up
I eat them up, I eat them up, I eat them up
And now your ideas are mine
Those of my own, those of my own have died, died
It's your luck
Why do you take it this far
Why do you take it this far
Why do you take it this far, this far
Through the haze you find a way to see the danger in everything
To see the shadows hovering
It's all your fault I always feel every bump and every deal
Anxiety is breaking free
Fueling you and feeding me
You spew your prophecies at me and I heat them up, I eat them up
Its your luck
Take it, don't leave it behind
Your fault I'll never be fine
You spew your prophecies at me and I heat them up, I eat them up
It's clear through the spider webs
That you steer us into the lion’s den
Into jaws our reason falls

A cross, the kind you multiply your numbers by your odds
The rush you love the feeling when you’re off
Dissolve into another world where you can lose your mind
And that line, was never drawn
I left my body bare, so loot me if you dare
Nothing left to give, nothing left to spare
You want it so bad
Can’t straighten the thoughts along the edge
All shrouded in black until the light turns on in your head
You want it so bad
Can’t stop all the impulsiveness
A death wish until you’re reminded of the life you built
It’s your god given right to curb your appetite
Whenever you feel like you’re hollow inside
Nothing left to fill when the ache subsides
Whether shallow or six feet below
It doesn’t matter you are dead to me now, now, now
It doesn’t matter you are dead to me now, now, now
You were born in the dirt, to the dirt you’ll return
I’ll be sure that the earth won’t regurgitate you this time
You’ll never walk another step, you’ll never breathe another breath
As long as I’m alive
You want it so bad
Can’t straighten the thoughts along the edge
All shrouded in black until the light turns on in your head
You want it so bad
Can’t stop all the impulsiveness
A death wish until you’re reminded of the life you built
You want it so bad, no no no nothing can stand in your way

Pour out your fault into this drink
Swirl it in your mouth
Swirl it in your blood so you can’t think
Tomorrow, tomorrow always comes & leaves
Weaving in between
In fragments still
Opaque until the world’s asleep
Too black & blue to follow through
The fall too steep, the fall too steep
Give me a reason
Don’t hold me hostage
Our bones align to form a cage
In fragments still
Opaque until the world’s asleep
Too black & blue to follow through
The fall too steep, the fall too steep
Pour out your fault into this drink
Swirl it in your mouth
Swirl it in your blood so you can’t, so you can’t think
Tomorrow always comes
Tomorrow always leaves us weaving in between
In fragments still
Opaque until the world’s asleep
Too black & blue to follow through
