Idle Hands

[Verse] Magnificent pose Let's have a toast It's hard to be happy I'm a pro at coming close Bring back the fires bring back the floods And keep me surrounded What am I gonna do about it Please just tell me if you know [Chorus] Following through everything Following through damnation alone A joke, a classical hope to be loved By everything and everyone The brain can't be told About the thoughts related to its mess So while I hold out hopes for a new day I avoid the mistakes [Verse] Leave it be Emotional anger dwells Where laissez-faire built a status of hell Devotion comes in ways that surprise me Hopes and prayers in the sky Keeps the demons from splintering [Chorus Reprise] I'd put your posters on my wall I cared your name into my heart, it's such a shame Fall leaves are burning up platforms To confuse hope with what we hate [Bridge] Told you I'm done trying to hurt myself Spend all my time trying to get help So keep your idle hands still When your life turns into a mess Don't fall back into the past unbearable consciousness You keep your idle hands still When your life turns into a mess Don't lift the screen to your head And depend on the blinding lighting for success I never thought that I'd subscribe to Or liken myself to A machine where I sit and wait on somebody else
