lyrics

Are waves crashing or am I just imagining floods in me?
I guess I'll never see,
I'm pouring out, and I'm forgetting about
all the retribution I force on myself.
And the dull ache,
caused by mental revisions of things I can't take,
it's burning me and I can't tell what I prefer:
the coldness of the water or the flames getting hotter.

I can't seem to sit still without picking holes in your couch
or my skin and
you don't seem to know where it all began,
well who am I to judge?
And I'm not sure if I'm bored or just self absorbed.
I don't know what anyone wants with me,
what do you want with me?

I'm sleeping in a shipwreck
can you cut me some slack?
I know the answer's no
but I can't stop asking that.
My patience is splintering like dry bone
and I can't stand feeling my pulse through dial tone.
We've got fair shame in everything
and remnants of your life bring back hurricanes.

I don't wanna fight no more
Real people aren't people
until they prove they're something more
I don't wanna fight no more
Real people aren't people
until they prove they're something more
(Get up)

I can't seem to sit still without picking holes in your couch
or my skin and
you don't seem to know where it all began,
well who am I to judge?
And I'm not sure if I'm bored or just self absorbed.
I don't know what anyone wants with me,
what do you want with me?

So focus on the stars,
until the light makes you dizzy.
I sleep pressed against the window
so the night might swallow me.

I don't wanna fight no more

So focus on the stars,
until the light makes you dizzy.
I sleep pressed against the window
so the night might swallow me.
