Houdini (Demo)

Swear you got my heart in handcuffs

Like you got my love in a headlock

I'm underwater, held down by ten tons

I'm running out of oxygen

We used to stay up, talk all night

Now we're a silent movie, black and white

We were cool, like, a lifetime ago

We were tied to each other, and we got tangled in the ropes

Me or you, who'll be the first to let go?

Made me fool for all your magic

Turns out it was just a mirrorball

And a smoke machine

The boy that I'd always dreamed of

Hiding out of the back of the school bus

A spinning wheel, why you throwin' knives at me?

High on the trapeze, no safety net underneath

We used to wait up, watch sunrise

Now we're a silent movie, black and white

We were cool, like, a lifetime ago

We were tied to each other, and we got tangled in the ropes

Me or you, who'll be the first to let go?

Someday soon, I'm gonna catch my breath back

But now we're nothing more than a circus act

There was a time when we were golden

There was a place when we weren't broken

Oh

We were cool, like, a lifetime ago

We were tied to each other, and we got tangled in the ropes

Me or you, who'll be the first to let go?

You made me fool for all your magic, yeah

You made me fool for all your magic

Turns out it was just a mirrorball

And a smoke machine
