lyrics

i wish that i could turn myself off sometimes. i wish that i could burn myself down sometimes.

i want to give you space you don’t want, a break from my own face, but you say that’s no good. i want to vanish for a minute. there is no other way to spin it. just why?

i’ll pay to talk about the things that haunt me for my sake, and yours, and future parties’.

i want to find a way to fix this, or at least keep it just my business, but you say that there’s no reason i should hide out, and there’s no threshold to the amount you’ll listen in.

you say you are not going anywhere. my mind plays these tricks on me, and you help to bury them. it’s the same thing. it’s the same thing every time.
