emolyrics (original) (raw)

listen carefully to the sound
of your loneliness
like a heartbeat, drives you mad
in the stillness of remembering
what you had.
and what you lost.
and what you had.
and what you lost.

i'm a broken man and you all know you can win me over
with just a kiss on the neck

I'm making my way between the rocks,
I'm making my way past all them docks,
I got myself a bird that talks, oh yeah.
I got a crew that calls me king,
I got myself a bird that sings,
but all of that don't mean a thing, oh no.
All I want is just a ring for you.

Right or wrong, I love you just the same.
On those lonely nights, just know that I'm the one to blame.
The ghost is gone, I know it's hard, but I'll be coming home.
So don't you go too far.

isn't it messed up, how I'm just dying to be him

I didn't
I don't
just want to be a footnote in someone else's happiness

love, loving you has been but war paint

I could stare at your back all day
I could stare at your back all day
And I know I've kissed you before, but
I didn't do it right
Can I try again, try again, try again
Try again, and again, and again
And again, and again, and again

oh love, it is foolish and green, my love
how quickly we forget the sting, my love
what a pretty yet dangerous line, my love
what bitter yet delicious wine, my love

black, black is love's potion
take heed, take heed of the thorns
don't scream
when it stings
remember that you were warned

I'm not making a joke
You know me, I take everything so seriously
If we wait for the time 'til all souls get it right
Then at least I know there'll be no nuclear annihilation in my lifetime
I'm still not right

I should not be left to my own devices
they come with prices and vices I end up in crisis
I've realized all this time
I wake up screaming from dreaming

one day

I'll watch as you're leaving
cause you got tired of my scheming
for the last time

it's me, hi
I'm the problem, it's me
at tea time, everybody agrees
I'll stare directly at the sun
but never in the mirror
it must be exhausting
always rooting for the anti-hero
