Tell me
What is it you're thinking lately
i'll be
listening from my side

so please be
rational for once cause this seems
plaguing
and i won't be apart of this

and I won't catch myself
Falling through the air
That was meant to be
Your job baby

Yeah I get it now
You simply don’t care
You just don't seem
On it lately

and that's why
you'll never take the time to finally
realize
there's empathy in what im saying

and i'll try  
to read between the lines cause baby
if i cry
the screams just ensue again

//and you don't know!

You don't know it's killing me
Every time that you land in my bed
I don't know what to think
Cause I hate when you're not there

and I'll find my vision
But I don't know where you'll fit in
and I swear I'll find myself
By god I do it again and again so 

Front the image
Read fine print cause it's all that’s written
Can't find a ledge to stand
But by god I do this again and again so

leave me lone'
yeah I know
I have much to atone 
inside this daydream

yeah the ego
in my own faults
They infect this head 
and our own dailies

so i'll leave the peace 
for you to break it in
maybe we'll find a way
for us to wash our sin

Yeah I really don’t want
this night to ever end
And that's why 
we can't pretend

//that you don't know!

You don't know it's killing me
Every time that you land in my bed
I don't know what to think
Cause I hate when you're not there

and I'll find my vision
But I don't know where you'll fit in
and I swear I'll find myself
By god I do it again and again so 

Front the image
Read fine print cause it's all that’s written
Can't find a ledge to stand
But by god I do this again and again so

Why are we here again?
oh baby
Why are we here again?

And I think
that its funny that you're open
because you know im so broken
accosted
and left on the floor

oh no
oh no
oh no

I know
That we're running out of options
So you'll just steal it again
yeah i know

oh yeah baby I know

And if we wait for the answer
It won't come our way
We'll wash and fade  
Is that okay? 

Its not hard when
you don’t hide
your face
and those eyes tell me that there's
   
//they tell me everything


no time for reckless truths and
We'll find the only proof is
behind the curtains moved and  
this time I'll fight for you but

Next time you'll bite the bullet
rewind there's still time to move and
Realize there's nothing to this

Just say it
Please say it

peace be with you
I just won't go

are you gonna steal my heart again 
oh no

//put your hands up and 
//type in your snapchat right now 
//type your snapchat right now
//do it come on

Those brown curls showing gold and
Its bout the way it flows and
You know just where this goes
and you know I'll follow you

Endless I won't be holding
Something you know is stolen
Sometimes silence will fold and
I said I wont hold

//i can't handle this

The peace inside
You'll tear the line
Know we won't find it again

Petrified
Can't reside
I won't lose this again

Think of my
Endless nights
Waiting for that face to walk in

How will I
Dream tonight
Well I won't cause I fear

//they tell me everything

That you'll steal my heart again
Oh no

I fear you'll steal my heart again
Oh no

I fear you'll steal my heart again
Oh no

I fear you'll steal my heart again
Oh no

//no time for reckless truths and
//We'll find the only proof is
//behind the curtains moved and
//this time I'll fight for you but

//Next time you'll bite the bullet
//rewind there's still time to move and
//Realize there's nothing to this

//Just say it
//Please say it

I love you.

one day you wont be a kleptomaniac and im praying for it to come

Your findings will cave you in
Don't put your trust in it

It's blinding
You hear the crack 
and all you see are lights instead

Stop trying 
To read my mind
And instead just read my lips

We used to fiend for nights like this
Now we don't know where we stand

Go on tell me
Just what you want
It's not exact but
I'm an open front

And you'll read me
Like an open book
You'll know it back to front
To get what you want

Look in my iris
To see right through my image
if you don't ask once
You'll always swing and miss

And I won't be the one
Who sits and plays the victim
This is all you
And im not the one who's missing

I won't go
Wherever your assumptions take me

Always the same thing lately

Yeah you've hit 100 right!!!

Out the ballpark
Guessing got you in trouble yeah

And it's my fault
Confused feelings with exhaustion

you've hit my line
For the hundredth time

Won't you please just go?

Don't you guess 
What to expect from me
Yeah you need to stop it

Don't you guess 
What to expect from me
Yeah you need to stop it

Who are you to speak

Assumptions get you in trouble!
Goddamn I'm so exhausted!

Yeah I'm standing here 
on my own two feet!

The juggling of all of this
The ends right there
Take all of it 

Just ask me the questions
Quit trying to reach for me

Cause theres nothing  
but space when I
Reach out here without you

In for another night of us
Waiting endlessly

Yeah I can't
I just can't 

there's nothing left for me to find
other than being ostracized
stranded on this mountain
i'll climb it again 

You won't give me things that I
Know bring me peace of mind
You lack the ignition
Give me the keys

Just ask me the questions
You'll learn the difference
Can we stop all this guessing
Cause you're killing me

Now we're in the ballpark
Laying in daises
And you thought you knew the answers.
Yeah you thought you knew the answers!

How it should end
not like this
We knew all those nights were a risk

You calling me back to bed
But we both know how everything like this ends

Replays of my Icarus
Longing forgetting what
it's like to live

I'll reshade the drawings again
But nothing will make up for all of my wish

So lets sit down
Make no sound
Breathe deep now
I'm all around

So
Lets sit down
//These dark tones, they wont fold

Make no sound
//Hollowed out envy just bends

Breathe deep now
//take that locket from your neck

I'm all around
//But make no mistake I'm 

Stuck in chains of memory
Trapped in the locket it seems
i guess that I'll bleed

Cause I won't get my answers
I'll never know what's next
There's empty snowed out left turns
We'll crash at the bend

And I won't find solace
In iris's seer
She got my token
And I got dead dreams



So
Lets sit down
//These dark tones, they wont fold

Make no sound
//Hollowed out envy just bends

Breathe deep now
//take that locket from your neck

I'm all around
//But make no mistake I'm

You'd better take it off.
That butterfly around your neck.
You'd better take it off.
That butterfly around your neck.
You'd better take it off.
That butterfly around your neck.
You'd better take it~
Oh, that butterfly around your neck.

So tell me
why is it im left alone?
So tell me
What's the use in sleeping away?
Cause i'll dream
And you'll be there endlessly
So tell me

Cause I'm here to tell you
The end is nigh 
 
there's a reason
for the treason 
its by our design

it's that fate that brought me to you
found in winter chasing time

you were once a caterpillar
now you're my butterfly
wrapped in golden sunlight

Now I'm left in your basket
May as well be a casket
I

Don't wanna react poor
But I 

don't wanna be ash
and why

why I'd get put here
I 

I just came to tell you
I just came to tell you

The end is nigh 
 
there's a reason
for the treason 
its by our design

it's that fate that brought me to you
found in winter chasing time

you were once a caterpillar
now you're my butterfly
wrapped in golden sunlight

it's so real
yeah i swear
i feel you
you're right there

the winter's here
it's august 5th
I won't remiss

but lets be clear
the only tone
is the message froze

Of ancient stare
Man it's cold out there
You left me in

disrepair
But I just came
To tell you

The end is nigh 
 
there's a reason
for the treason 
its by our design

it's that fate that brought me to you
found in winter chasing time

you we're once a caterpillar
now you're my butterfly
wrapped in golden sunlight

We've wasted away all these years
What to do with misplaced fears?
And everyday, I yearn for here
But where is that when tears roll

Down again
This is my end
And i won't forgive
what's endless in this

this is for him
and all that you did
I'm drowning in it
So what's with your tears rolling

down

Oh
Won't you just do what you're told
Reality comes in the folds

and I don't know what you think
But I know who you see
don’t you play dumb with me

Yeah im not them
Don't you breathe in

You don't deserve the love I have to give

So let's not pretend
I've been to the end
and i've lost all hope in this
i've lost all hope in this 

So did you get it
I've thrown a thousands coins
Did you get my message?
It's felt so endless

Man I can't stand it
Living thoughts on loop
Yeah it feels so reckless

and that’s far enough
Don't act so tough
I can't stand the muck
and all that you spew around

I've came out the rough
nothing to do in town
hit on all my luck
can't stand to lose a round

Oh
Won't you just do what you're told
Reality comes in the folds

and I don't know what you think
But I know who you see
don’t you play dumb with me

Yeah im not them
Don't you breathe in

You don't deserve the love I have to give

So let's not pretend
I've been to the end
and i've lost all hope in this
i've lost all hope in this 

*instrumental break*

Oh
I can't do what I'm told
And that's how this breaks for me

What do you think you've seen? 

Yeah I'm not them
Why can't I breathe in?

My love for you was everything
I don’t deserve to stand and bleed

So let's not pretend
I've been to the end
and i've lost all hope in this
i've lost all hope in this 

Can't begin again
When I do you come back in
and i've lost all hope in this
i've lost all hope in this

oh, hope

Flashbacks
Couldn't test and live-fire our limits
I can't fly higher with these wings
Can't reach new heights 
when you need me so

I know
There's time lapse
and there's a fire beneath me
What can you say when you're charred deep
Down to your bones
I feel indigo

Find me in my own clash
Knee deep in the end of our last
And I revel in all of the fact that
I've stopped bleeding out all on the mattress

The empty one you left me on
and I know that I'm not that strong but 
these are feelings that just don't fade
and i've become what I swore to hate so

When will you stop chasing me 
We both know this isn't what you need
and I know im not what you seek
and to me that means everything

and i get it your love knows different
trust me my god knows I miss it
but i'm the bringer of all my pain  
and this is the end of eras baby 

so is the crown heavy
was the pain you caused worth it
and necessary

yeah i'm tearing
there's a rift you've sown 
and I'm oh so grown to parry

i swear eve
I can't go back to the life we had it's scary
I know that crowns oh so heavy    

Promiscuous interest
Laced with all that I need to begin this again
I'll leave to bear witness
As I'm bathed in the scent and the light of your hair

And the seams feel so rigid
That's what happens when you lie
And the tape is right there

I don't mean to be different
But I can't help it when 

You send me left then go right
Then im here till the end of the night
then you ask if im doing just fine
what'd you expect from a soul with no rise

under butterflies dancing alone
i've got all of my sin to atone
yeah i swear eve i'll do what im told
i've got nothing to lose anymore

so stop
and listen
i've got all that we need to get with it
so don't get confused with the mission
(are you listening?)

There's not
An admission
For the need and all the attention
I don't need to walk in directions

that are splitting
can you hear me?

cause i'm tired of all this
All of this headache
and all of this hardship

i've tried to move on 
and i've failed with no solace
these are the things
that occur in the darkness

so who do you think that you are
you think you're a bright shining star?
you won't get that far

Good thing that I already know
I've got nothing to lose anymore

and to me that means everything

and to me that means everything

so is the crown heavy
was the pain you caused worth it
and necessary

yeah i'm tearing
there's a rift you've sown 
and I'm oh so grown to parry

i swear eve
I can't go back to the life we had it's scary
I know that crowns oh so heavy

is the crown heavy
