Lyrics

By Design

[Verse 1]

Nothing to do with my time

So I waited in line

I kept repeating the lie

Stick in the back of my mind

[Chorus]

Falling further away

From what I want to say to you

[Verse 2]

I couldn't wait for the sign

I needed you to remind

That it couldn't be by design

It couldn't be by design

[Chorus]

Falling further away

Falling further away

From what I want to say to you

[Verse 3]

Trapped inside with a home invader

Oscillating currents of the daily erasure

Find me in the corner talking hardware

Finding

Lightning

Blinding
