lyrics
The bedroom, the citadel
your eyes closed, and I shake with every sound
What’s it like when I’m not around?
I been missing my life stuck up in the sky (I’m giving this a try)
It’s alright, it’s what I want
Let’s wait it out till the pain’s too much
Emma was singing out
her last breath, dreaming fast and loud
I’m sitting weak and checked out
I want another chance to say goodbye
Not long till were broken down
Nothing’s fair when it’s late-night
No signs that I’m slowing down
Forgot what you gave, stuck feeling this way
I can’t love you if I’m not around
Body in coffin shape,
lines blurred sleeping through the days,
I’m trying to remember your face
I want another chance to say goodbye
Not long till we’re broken down
Nothing’s fair when it’s late-night
No signs that I’m slowing down
The memories that live after we die
won’t last if I’m holding out
Give me one more to stay high
Keep fast from slowing down
Forgot what you gave,
stuck feeling this way I can’t love you
(I’ve been missing my life stuck up in the sky),
Forgot what you gave,
Fuck feeling this way,
I can’t love you if I’m not around
your eyes closed, and I shake with every sound
What’s it like when I’m not around?
I been missing my life stuck up in the sky (I’m giving this a try)
It’s alright, it’s what I want
Let’s wait it out till the pain’s too much
Emma was singing out
her last breath, dreaming fast and loud
I’m sitting weak and checked out
I want another chance to say goodbye
Not long till were broken down
Nothing’s fair when it’s late-night
No signs that I’m slowing down
Forgot what you gave, stuck feeling this way
I can’t love you if I’m not around
Body in coffin shape,
lines blurred sleeping through the days,
I’m trying to remember your face
I want another chance to say goodbye
Not long till we’re broken down
Nothing’s fair when it’s late-night
No signs that I’m slowing down
The memories that live after we die
won’t last if I’m holding out
Give me one more to stay high
Keep fast from slowing down
Forgot what you gave,
stuck feeling this way I can’t love you
(I’ve been missing my life stuck up in the sky),
Forgot what you gave,
Fuck feeling this way,
I can’t love you if I’m not around
