The people you trust
And how much should it mean for us
To moments you shared
For digital thoughts and prayers
Well maybe we're perfect
I thought that would be enough
And the timing is worth it
The radio's calling your bluff
So sink into the river
Submerged in the whitest gown
I see straight through the liquor
Maybe it will shut my mouth
Well you say it right.
So sink into the river
Thank God, it's dragging you down
With injuries that I've incurred
Fragmented towards the ground
Well maybe we're perfect
I thought that would be enough
And the timing is perfect
The radio's calling your bluff
So how do you manage?
How do you survive on luck?
And I'm taking advantage:
A chemistry based in lust.

I know it's hard, but try to keep your
Eyes on mine
A jealous heart, an antiquated sense of pride
My intent is to deceive you,
My alibi: preconceived on static notions
Which I devise
And I know that it won't be so lonesome
And I know that it won't be...
And I know it won't amuse me,
The price to make you fold
The different shades of concrete
The brick and mortar mold
And it's neverending, but I, I know
What you condone
And it won't be long
The dear depart, an indiscretion is sympathized
While the hearts of begging lovers turn the tide
But they're content like dancing needles
While vilified to the tune of jilted clockwork
And watchful eyes
And I know that it won't be so lonesome
And I know that it won't be...

Lyrics:
Don't repeat the sins designed
To contradict the cost implied
It seems you've waited your whole life
The consequence to comply
So sell your soul to the disease
The fashion, the outline, the block letter screens
Hang every bastard who does not concede
The truth like a letter you will not receive
And suddenly it feels contrived
It's keeping me indoors at night
So what if I'm vacant, what if I close my eyes?
The consequence to comply
It's like I'm drowning in the weather
Skin like wounds to a salty sea
So I change the contract, I do it better...
What color does the author bleed?
And there's no option for your conflict
When gods and prophets collaborate in time
So take my caution and leave me honest
There could never be a focus of relief,
So just let it go.
So cut me out of frame, I can't take it.

So let me know if I go to far
as you deal the cards.
In neon lights
they'll talk all night
and fight for the pulpit.
So take into account
with all your whereabouts
and put me in the ground;
I'd be so better off.
Oh, now you've won the crowd
theatrical and selling out.
I want that Broadway sound
but I know it's not enough.
So keep it slow,
stay in your car
as I beg the stars.
In the dead of night,
we'll keep up this fight
and ask, "Was it worth it?"
Take into account
with all your whereabouts
and put me in the ground;
I'd be so better off.
Oh, now you've won the crowd
theatrical and selling out.
I want that Broadway sound
but I know it's not enough.
