lyrics
woke up to my host passed out
it was late and i was angry at myself
called her on my phone after i left
it was dark and i was mad
and she could tell
i never miss my train but i was drunk
passed the sign that warned “construction on the L”
lucky I got back to my place around 5
and i cried
it’s a warning sign
spinning neon on the gray line
there’s the feeling unstable again
a pattern that i fall in
falling through an open door
stumbled grabbing at old habits on the shelf
cutting every corner
I've been giving less than half of myself
each morning i wake up
the headache
the shape of release still far from my doorbell
and I don’t wanna do this anymore
i wanna know me better
it’s a warning sign
spinning neon on the gray line
there’s the feeling unstable again
a pattern that i’m falling in
i’m cozy in paper places
people wonder if i’m fine
well i’m finding that question hard to answer
coming up empty inside
but i give a little more each time
and there’s the warning sign
spitting neon on the gray line
cut the car from the cable
try to find another train to take
it was late and i was angry at myself
called her on my phone after i left
it was dark and i was mad
and she could tell
i never miss my train but i was drunk
passed the sign that warned “construction on the L”
lucky I got back to my place around 5
and i cried
it’s a warning sign
spinning neon on the gray line
there’s the feeling unstable again
a pattern that i fall in
falling through an open door
stumbled grabbing at old habits on the shelf
cutting every corner
I've been giving less than half of myself
each morning i wake up
the headache
the shape of release still far from my doorbell
and I don’t wanna do this anymore
i wanna know me better
it’s a warning sign
spinning neon on the gray line
there’s the feeling unstable again
a pattern that i’m falling in
i’m cozy in paper places
people wonder if i’m fine
well i’m finding that question hard to answer
coming up empty inside
but i give a little more each time
and there’s the warning sign
spitting neon on the gray line
cut the car from the cable
try to find another train to take
