There were clothes on the bed and a note at the scene

Blood on the walls and the white of your sheets

A coke glass half empty and letters you gave me to keep

Looking for an out this time

And I can't find it

Body bag and lips zip-tied

I'm done with trying, whoa-oh

We've been walking on egg shells

Lying from friends

My words are tattooed on my tongue and my chest

Why linger like rumours, pretend like we're friends?

If we can't play it cool, I'd rather play dead

X2

You'll never find me like 6am lightning or whispers stuck between your teeth

Lines of mourning that morning that core in the sobbing

Convinced I might even believe

Calling out your name with mine, a ghost in hiding

Chills are running up my spine

Can you feel them rising, whoa-oh

We've been walking on egg shells

Lying from friends

My words are tattooed on my tongue and my chest

Why linger like rumours, pretend like we're friends?

If we can't play it cool, I'd rather play dead

X2

Swirl in silence, sound in silence, I can barely breath

Making something out of nothing, that's so typical of me

X2

We've been walking on egg shells

Lying from friends

My words are tattooed on my tongue and my chest

Why linger like rumours, pretend like we're friends?

If we can't play it cool, I'd rather play dead
