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
