|
Rock the house |
|
"You make me wanna die" |
|
He said it like he meant it |
|
Story over no more |
|
hopin to prevent it |
|
"You make me wanna live" |
|
She said that with a straight face |
|
And she placed keep sakes |
|
Inside her suitcase |
|
"Everything you say is a lie" |
|
He said that with a smirk |
|
Fully aware that it'll hurt |
|
When it hits the nerve |
|
"You've never heard a word I've said" |
|
She responded |
|
But he heard that |
|
And remembered it forever like a promise |
|
Now here we are, wearing hatred on our masks |
|
Let's carry on, put all your eggs inside that basket |
|
Swing it round, until that wooden handle snaps |
|
Sort 'em all out and only keep the ones that cracked |
|
"You make me wanna die" |
|
That's why I trust you |
|
That's so I can look you in the eye and say I love you |
|
[Chorus] |
|
[Background voice chanting] |
|
Set us free |
|
[Woman] |
|
I want to live |
|
I want to die |
|
I've never seen a sun decide to set so abrupt |
|
As it does when the gun inside of you wakes up |
|
Almost as if it's trying to hide from your tantrums |
|
Head full of hurt, pride, a closet full of phantoms |
|
Never seen the sun shine quite so loud |
|
As it does when that little girl makes herself proud |
|
Almost as if it wants to come play a part |
|
In those moments when your heart ain't afraid of the dark |
|
But sometimes I swear you make the sun confused |
|
It wants to rise but it over-analyzes what to do |
|
It cries more than you, when the storms come knockin |
|
tries to hide it's face, just avoid watchin |
|
I would ride by and wave, but there aint no parade |
|
So I'ma stay and wait for the day the sun goes away |
|
[Chorus] |
|
[Background voice chanting] |
|
Set us free |
|
[Woman] |
|
I want to live |
|
I want to die |
|
What is it about women that brings out my venom |
|
Thought it was a peach, it tasted like a lemon |
|
I ate it anyway, can't help it's my natural |
|
From one extreme to another, no room for practical |
|
Just act casual maybe they won't notice |
|
Or fall off the planet so you can escape the focus |
|
Break the dirt; bury me down when I'm broken |
|
Or let the under-current carry me out to the ocean |
|
Can't swim as good as I could as a child |
|
But as a kid, I never swam just stood there and smiled |
|
Even though the idea of drownin in you |
|
Seems kinda like it might be the wrong thing to do |
|
You gotta take a look at you and I, the clown and the fool |
|
Love can make suicide sound so cool |
|
[Chorus] |
|
[Background voice chanting] |
|
Set us free |
|
[Woman] |
|
I want to live |
|
I want to die |
|
Let's watch the sun disappear into the water |
|
Let's watch these people, and point at the imposters |
|
Let's lay it on the line, let's travel across it |
|
Let's live forever no matter what it costs us |
|
Claustrophobic, lots of down talk |
|
Toss clothes in and turn it off |
|
Easily lost in moments |
|
Forgot the motives, sun almost exploded |
|
Lookin for proof, who would've knew, toy gun was loaded |
|
Go ahead and throw it out into the waves |
|
Say goodbye to yesterday and try to fly the stress away |
|
Took it from the sky and looked it square in the eye |
|
Silence, trying to read between the snore and the sigh |
|
There's a reason that they say that they can't take it with 'em |
|
I'm your leavin cuz of love, it really isn't livin |
