lyrics

I'm forced to watch
Reflections of monotone spoken from my lips
& what's bottled up
I release with the help of liquid love

So I douse my blood in silver skies
To keep a darkened sunrise frozen in time

I'm always bound to a self destructive wake
Some nights I wanna runaway but I know that I'll just stay
& I think you'd chase me wherever I'd end up
& it still pains me to say that I want you to stay

Oh can't we wait
For the problem to address itself and fade away
Cause we're picture perfect
Let's not make anymore drastic changes to this life

But I know all that is, is my head lying
& I can't help but give into it again

I'm always bound to a self destructive wake
Some nights I wanna runaway but I know that I'll just stay
& I think you'd chase me wherever I'd end up
& it still pains me to say that I want you to stay

But it might be alright if you go
Although I don't think I wanna make it on my own
Oh I hope it's alright if you go
I can't stand the thought of being all alone

Have you heard a word I've said?
Cause I've been talking to the dead
But will you promise to fix me again?

I'm always bound to a self destructive wake
Some nights I wanna runaway but I know that I'll just stay
& I think you'd chase me wherever I'd end up
& it still pains me to say that I want you to stay

But it might be alright if you go.
