Lyrics

Got the life I begged the stars for
A steady hand recovered land
But I highly doubt the ground won't open
'Cause deep beneath
Her restless shadow moves
Patient, knows its cue
Hummin' dark melodies
Mmm, triplets impending doom
Shouldn't it be easy
To choose the light, follow through?
But the pain buried below
Drives me insane
It's the chaos that I crave
One text, the trap's been sprung
Two breaths, my skin's gone numb
You're the rush before a crash
I'm clawing for the crumbs
I'm giving in
Gnawing at the bit
Every glimmer, every vow
Paradoxical somehow
Caught betwixt the monster's eyes
What have I become? (ha, ha)
Goddamn, this should be fun (ha, ha)
There's nowhere left to run
Bloody hell, I've had enough
What have I become?
Fuck it, I swear I'm done
Until tomorrow comes
I'm reflected as a stranger (stranger)
Half in love and half alive (half alive)
I could be the story's savior
Or a punk too jaded to try
One night melts into forever
When I give the bitch her way (her way)
Shouldn't it be easy to live aligned
And keep my hands sterilized?
But parts of me are hemorrhaging
I can't save them while holding onto you
One text, the trap's been sprung
Two breaths, my skin's gone numb
You're the rush before a crash
I'm clawing for the crumbs
I'm giving in
Gnawing at the bit (no)
Every glimmer, every vow
Paradoxical somehow
Caught betwixt the monster's eyes
What have I become? (ha, ha)
Goddamn, this should be fun (ha, ha)
There's nowhere left to run
Bloody hell, I've had enough
What have I become?
Fuck it, I swear I'm done
Until tomorrow
I know it's poison on my tongue
Still I sip it, I'm not done
Make a vow, then I run
Set my mind atop the sun
She wears the crown
I'm bowing down
Promise, I wanna sharpen my truth
Even though I know I'm gonna lose
You're the rush before a crash
I'm clawing for the crumbs
I'm giving in
Gnawing at the bit
Every glimmer, every vow
Paradoxical somehow (somehow)
Caught betwixt the monster's eyes
What have I become? (ha, ha)
Goddamn, this should be fun (ha, ha)
There's nowhere left to run
Bloody hell, I've had enough
What have I become?
Fuck it, I swear I'm done
Until tomorrow comes
