lyrics
I knew from the start you were wrong
when you said you ready to fall and
willing to be not like yourself but
I guess you figured it out,
what's that like?
I came across you lying over your bed
involuntarily, in a mess of your insides
among your devices.
But there was a smile on your face
you're such a waste now,
what happened to the you I knew?
There you are by yourself
now no one can touch you but
no one wants to.
get up now, we can find our way out
across the fields
Twitch, twitch, twitch
some dead weight and a drunk man
don't go well when time isn't in your hands.
Can you see the sky or
are your pupils too dialated?
What's life look like, what's life like for you?
No, I wish it weren't you, I wish it were me
in your shoes.
when you said you ready to fall and
willing to be not like yourself but
I guess you figured it out,
what's that like?
I came across you lying over your bed
involuntarily, in a mess of your insides
among your devices.
But there was a smile on your face
you're such a waste now,
what happened to the you I knew?
There you are by yourself
now no one can touch you but
no one wants to.
get up now, we can find our way out
across the fields
Twitch, twitch, twitch
some dead weight and a drunk man
don't go well when time isn't in your hands.
Can you see the sky or
are your pupils too dialated?
What's life look like, what's life like for you?
No, I wish it weren't you, I wish it were me
in your shoes.
