lyrics

I was waiting on the skyline
To kiss my forehead goodnight
And the fires burning inside feel a lot like you
Can’t look away for too long
In case I blink and you’re gone
But in the meantime, I’ll remain inside
Silently plotting away all my goodbyes

Please hear me loud and clear
You’re not the reason why I’m here
And just seeing you standing there
Puts knots in my hair, oh

Laughing maniacally under the stairs
Sure signs of atrophy chewing my hair
My stomach hurts, not like before
Shades fully drawn, filtered light creeping in
Warm, bitter sunshine biting my skin
My hands are pruned
Even my nails

I was waiting on the skyline
To kiss my forehead goodnight
And the fires burning inside feel a lot like you
Can’t look away for too long
In case I blink and you’re gone
But in the meantime, I’ll remain inside
Silently plotting away all my goodbyes

Please hear me loud and clear
You’re not the reason why I’m here
And just seeing you standing there
Puts knots in my hair, oh

Now I’m pacing
Believing in something that’s not you (That is not you)
And I’m scared of achieving what whispers
They say to do
(Something that is not you)
This body’s not mine
But I’ll be damned if I’m leaving

I was waiting on the skyline
To kiss my forehead goodnight
And the fires burning inside feel a lot like you
Can’t look away for too long
In case I blink and you’re gone
But in the meantime, I’ll remain inside
Silently plotting away all my goodbyes
All my goodbyes
All of my goodbyes
