New single taken from the forthcoming sophomore EP "Ghosts" out May 24th, 2024.
lyrics
I’m going back on my word
And it’s not the first and it won’t be the last I swear
That’s a promise I’ll keep
And I got the scars to prove it
Blame this explosion on the shortened fuse
Never on, No! Never on the demolition crew
You look so far away from me
Peeking inside curtains while we sleep
Self-inflicted sympathy
Draining marrow for relief
I said I’m fine (I said I’m fine!)
You know I’m lying but I swear this time I’m bowing out for good
I’m stuck inside (I’m stuck inside!)
My legs are giving out and I’m not sure where we’re going
Blame this explosion on the shortened fuse
Never on, no! Never on the demolition crew
Forty stripes minus one but we’re not finished here
Lashing out on myself
I think I’m still breathing
Won’t you cut my umbilical cord
I’ve been craving something more
And it’s not the first and it won’t be the last I swear
That’s a promise I’ll keep
And I got the scars to prove it
Blame this explosion on the shortened fuse
Never on, No! Never on the demolition crew
You look so far away from me
Peeking inside curtains while we sleep
Self-inflicted sympathy
Draining marrow for relief
I said I’m fine (I said I’m fine!)
You know I’m lying but I swear this time I’m bowing out for good
I’m stuck inside (I’m stuck inside!)
My legs are giving out and I’m not sure where we’re going
Blame this explosion on the shortened fuse
Never on, no! Never on the demolition crew
Forty stripes minus one but we’re not finished here
Lashing out on myself
I think I’m still breathing
Won’t you cut my umbilical cord
I’ve been craving something more
