Lyrics

Floodlights on the square

It's all going wrong, got a sandpaper tongue
I don't know what I want but it's not this
'Cause I keep waking up with this pain in my lungs
Everything fucking hurts and I don't want this
'Cause I
I keep losing my time
And I don't know what to do
'Cause I still rely on you
So I lost control
Took a quick trip down a rabbit hole
And I just can't help myself
I don't need anybody's help
How bad does it have to get
Before you need some help for it
I just can't help myself
I don't need anybody's help
'Cause I
I keep losing my time
And I don't know what to do
'Cause I still rely on you
And I don't know what to do
Can't let you see me like this
The stains of years on my skin
I still can't scratch the itch
Can't get feeling to go
'Cause it's so much worse when I'm alone
Soaks through my lips into my bones
And makes a person I don't even know
'Cause I still rely on you
And I don't know what to do
'Cause I still rely on you
'Cause I
I keep losing my time
And I don't know what to do
It's all going wrong
'Cause I still rely on you
It's all going wrong
And I don't know what to do
