Fading everything to black and blue
You look a lot like you’d shatter in the blink of an eye
But you keep sailing right on through
Everytime you say you’re learning
You just look a lot like me
Pales under the blistering sky
White and red
Black and blue

You’ve been waiting a long time
To fall down on your knees
Cut your hands
Cut yourself until you bleed
But fall asleep next to me

Wait for everyone to go away
And in a dimly lit room
Where you got nothing to hide
Say your goodbyes
Tell yourself we’ll read a note that says,
“I’m sorry everyone. I’m tired of feeling nothing. Goodbye.”
Wash your face dry your eyes

‘Cause you’ve been waiting a long time
To fall down on your knees
Cut your hands
Cut yourself until you bleed
But fall asleep next to me
And have a dream
I’m falling down on my face
I scrape my knees
I scrape my hands until they bleed
‘Cause you’re fast asleep next to me
