You're so addictive and I am a creep, but no one on Earth can really satisfy me, And my head’s like an old clock just loud until it breaks, Waiting for a fix, another big mistake. I barely even know you it’s a habit of mine, To cling like a spider with a web to climb, - I’d Chew You Up And Spit You Out - Kid you don’t even know me yet. It’s 4am and I’m locked out of my head again, asking to get in why is the ice always so thin? Close enough to touch but not close enough to breathe you in, Lasting long enough to test the water to drown myself in. Feel it when I fall, Listen when I talk, Then use it when I’m down, Is this what we've come to now? Sitting in silence in the cold, Nights are loud but you must have sold me out - As Soon As You Opened Your Mouth It’s 4am and I’m locked out of my head again, Asking to get in why is the ice always so thin? Close enough to touch but not close enough to breath you in, Lasting long enough to test the water to drown myself in. I’m closing down. It’s 4am and I’m locked out of my head again, Asking to get in why is the ice always so thin? Close enough to touch but not close enough to breath you in, Lasting long enough to test the water to drown myself in.

She used to be a weirdo just like me, But now she’s acting differently, She used to get excited over little things, She used to stay up late on games with me. She used to wanna go to the park at night, With nothing but a camera flash for a light, She used to have a smile that could brighten the sky, But now I’ve got a feeling that she’s got some other plans tonight. I waited patiently for a while, I wonder how you lost your style, I’ve been through this before, I’ve been through this before. We used to read each other like a really good book, And I used to follow her by hook or crook, We used to see each other with honey glazed eyes, Sometimes I see a person I could almost despise. I still love you now; maybe slightly less than then, And yes you will always be my best friend, But why haven’t you spoke to me in months, Maybe you’ve changed just like I have… Always out to get me, Always used to get me, Always out to get me, The fox and the hound… We can try and stay the same, But we’ll never be 9 years old again

You step into a world and it feels so unique, But it’s just another freedom chaser, ‘love’ teaching, Is there really no other theme, that you can bring? You don’t need him to love you to love yourself, You only get a break if you work before you sell, And you might disagree but if means enough to me, That I would speak my own thoughts with feeling. It’s just love it’s just love, Don’t blaspheme the name, You’re not telling me a thing. It’s not love it’s not love, So give it back to me. Whisper my name I’ll tell it again, You’re nothing less to me than you used to be; sweet. And lust? What is lust but a game? So play it again. You’re nothing less to me…

The songs that set it off, I owe you for it all, Pressed my ear on repeat- Do you hear me? Hoping to work my own way around, Always in such a rush in this town. Tripping over and under the bridge between the suburbs and the city. So are you coming with me? Set it off, oh, oh To have it all, oh, oh Let me go with you, We have nothing to lose. Living in three minds at once, When I can’t get my head around one, And growing cold to any ideas, That let me go. Going nowhere fast, going somewhere fast
