Lately, Always

I've been drinking, been sinking ever deeper

Barely getting through

Playing Russian roulette

With the reaper

Seeing you online, sure helps the time run sweeter

I'm aware that you're forbidden territory

But I could sure use a fantasy

I consider this flame alight

It's been out too many dark nights

And now I'm burning brighter lately, always

I consider this flame alight

It's been out too many dark nights

And I'm burning brighter lately, always

And in the fantasy, I'm flying oversea

Feeling mutual

Leaving everything, starting up again

Somewhere neutral

This broken noun just needs a brand new plural

You're the one when I think about settling down

I wanna spend my time around

I consider this flame alight

It's been out too many dark nights

And I'm burning brighter lately, always

I consider this flame alight

It's been out too many dark nights

And I'm burning brighter lately, always

Right now, for sure, I could use some of your inspiration

Feel the benefit of a little bit of education

All that I need, I can find in one location

A man's gotta have a dream if he's gonna move on

And I've still got the same one

I consider this flame alight

It's been out too many dark nights

And I'm burning brighter lately, always

I consider this flame alight

It's been out too many dark nights

And I'm burning brighter lately, always
