Lyrics

HIGHLIGHTS

You love the drugs, but you shame the addict
Flex your new car but can't stand the traffic
Would you read the story if the ending isn't tragic?
Can't have the noise without all the static

Pick me apart so you can see
Which of the parts to keep and to leave
So I look just how you think I should be

You want the highlights
Not when I hate my life
Things I don't show you in the light
But when you look twice
You'll see the fault lines

You want the highlights
Not when I hate my life
Things I don't show you in the light
But when you look twice
You'll see the fault lines

You'll see the scars I'm hiding, tongue I'm biting
Weight crushing my chest so tightly
Reasons I compare myself
The hair that keeps on falling out
The fucked up things I think about
Like maybe I should kill myself
If I fall, will it make a sound
If nobody's around?

You want the highlights
Not when I hate my life
Things I don't show you in the light
But when you look twice
It's just the highlights

You want the highlights
Not when I hate my life
Things I don't show you in the light
But when you look twice
You'll see the fault lines

Highlights, highlights
Highlights, highlights
Highlights
But when you look twice
You'll see the fault lines
But when you look twice
It's just the highlights
