Brain-Dead

You were the stones in my river bed

Why are you actin' so inanimate?

I'm movin' too fast to carry you, to carry us

Before you made yourself hard to catch

You made a home in my helpin' hands

You used to tell me everything, everything

There's no fail-safe

You could hold my heart in your hands till it stops

You could go anywhere and I'd trail along

You used to be so sharp and now you're just dull

Used to cut so good, used to tell me what you should

Can't keep breathing for you so tell me that you can

Are you goin' brain-dead? 'Cause you're already halfway there

I'm not tryna fix you but I'm scared of where this ends

Are you goin' brain-dead? 'Cause you're already halfway there

I was your prayer in the past tense

The only one that would understand

Why did you go and lock me out then?

Lock me out then

Even when I'm passive you still resist

I'm thinkin' that it's time I was a realist

You were so grand in your silence

So empty in your absence

And there's no fail-safe

You could hold my heart in your hands till it stops

You could go anywhere and I'd trail along

You used to be so sharp and now you're just dull

Used to cut so good, used to tell me what you should

Can't keep breathing for you so tell me that you can

Are you goin' brain-dead? 'Cause you're already halfway there

I'm not tryna fix you but I'm scared of where this ends

Are you goin' brain-dead? 'Cause you're already halfway there

When you stopped responding

Should've cut my losses

Instead I held on hopin'

You'd wake up, oh what a fool I was

Can't keep breathing for you so tell me that you can

Are you goin' brain-dead? 'Cause you're already halfway there

I'm not tryna fix you but I'm scared of where this ends

Are you goin' brain-dead? 'Cause you're already halfway there
