These bad decisions keep you alive inside my head
I rewrote the words between your lines, convinced myself you need me too
But look at you so calm and unaffected
I'll fill the void with mistakes that dance along my blood cells
Drink away the night sky
Murder the dreams that steal my sleep
No time to kill
I've been throwing it away
No air to breath through the smoke that fills this street each day
Since you've left I've forced every single smile
I refuse to worship this poor excuse for a savior sunrise
As I push my problems away
One step ahead
One step ahead
One step ahead
You're always one step ahead of me
Love won't sell itself to me
It's far too cheap to be trusted
Or welcomed by a heart overflown with better promises
You kept things so discreet
(To make me so d*** desperate)
While our love grew more deformed
My best intentions followed you home
You preferred alone, but I didn't know
Until you left me dead with some left-hand scars
In the tow zone of a parking lot
Sorry love, was interest illegal
I'm staining the sidewalk with messed up colors
The flashing lights are burning head
Pushed through double doors, in a bright white bed
I'm the exemplification
Of incessant fixation
I am the continuation
Of hopeless rationalization
I'm the exemplification
Of incessant fixation
The continuation
The continuation of...
Love won't sell itself to me
It's far too cheap to be trusted
Or welcomed by a heart overflown with better promises
You kept things so discreet
(To make me so d*** desperate)
While our love grew more deformed
I worshipped you from afar
Even when you let me in
You buried me under
Something I couldn't begin
To grasp within my finger tips
Was it unfair to seek out happiness
in the form of you and I?
I threw myself into the same fire
that burnt me long ago
(Changing form and shifting shape
I refuse to live this way
Cursed to repeat all the same mistakes
I'm cursed to repeat all the same mistakes)
