Lyrics

WIRED

There's a reason
For the choices you have made
There's a season
Filled with razor blades
If I told you
Once or a thousand times
Would you listen?
Would you change your mind?

(I'll watch you) die for a little while
(I'll watch you) die for a little while
(I'll watch you) die for a little while
(I'll watch you) die for a little while

The soul was on hold at your request
When you sent for him
He could not resist
And you let it fly, just high enough to

(I'll watch you) die for a little while
(I'll watch you) die for a little while
(I'll watch you) die for a little while
(I'll watch you) die for a little while

Riot for anger
Riot for deceit
Riot for anger
Riot for deceit

Die for a little while
Die for a little while
Die for a little while
Die for a little-
Watch you-, w-watch-
