Altitude

It's a shame how we play these old games
Nothing's new, I'm the same
I won't change, I'm in chains for you
I could make something big of myself
If I grew to the tops of these mountains I'd climb for you
I got altitude
I am falling for you
Think I fucked it all up
When I left I had guts
Now I'm sleeping alone in a one bedroom hell
I don't know what I'm doing
They said I'd get through it
But running in place sure ain't my kind of fun
They said angels would guide me
Please hide me
I don't want no gods who have died to come find me
I'm low, I'm not living
This grave that I'm digging is mine,
But I'm fighting like hell so I don't prove you right
It kills me
It kills me to know that you're happy without me
Happy as if I had never been something you owned
I got altitude
I am falling for you
I was blessed before we met
It was all ignorance
Picket fences, a house to come home to
To hell with you raising me up so I'm seeing
The things that I'm missing
The things that I'm not supposed to know
It kills me
It kills me to know that you're happy without me
Happy as if I had never been something you owned
It kills me
It kills me to know I'm not better without you
Kills me that down is the only way I've left to go
I got altitude
I am falling for you
I got altitude
I am falling for you

I can't stay
I got bills to pay
And dreams to take me miles and miles and miles away
Can't delay
Or my heart will break
And then what's the point of even staying anyway?
Oh, you want me?
Oh, so you need me now?
Unfold
Unfold
Cause you're wrapped too tight around me
And it won't bring you gold
Unfold
And I've made peace
With my own disease
And it flourishes inside me like an evening breeze
And if I leave
It'll grow so free
And rid my body of the war you've built inside of me
Oh, you want me?
Oh, so you love me now?
Unfold
Unfold
Cause you're wrapped too tight around me
And it won't bring you gold
Unfold
You're the only one who can hurt me
With your bitter, angry soul
Like a snake in the tall grasses
It's not love if your blood runs cold
Unfold
Unfold
Unfold

The Thing You Need

I've been pushing the same things away
I've been thinking I had some debt to pay to you
But I give and give and so you take
Til I have nothing left for you
I've been making this place so goddamn safe
I open up my arms to hold you
Let nothing harm you
I feel the city writhe and shake
It's jaws are wide to devour you
But I stand between with all my strength
Hoping my actions will empower you
I been making this place so goddamn safe
I open up my arms to hold you
Let nothing harm you
I know I am the thing you need
And needing fills an urge in me
I been making this place so goddamn safe
I open up my arms to hold you
Let nothing harm you
And all I'd ask is for the same
And all I'd ask is for the same

Moonlight

It's reflected in my eyes
What I wouldn't do to get away from you
I had hoped that things would change
But it will take a million days
How much more moonlight can I waste?
How much more moonlight can I waste?
I don't want to be admired
For going down with every ounce of my pride
I can't hold my wrongs
And cherish them like children I should love
I cannot sink cause I haven't given up
I cannot sink cause I haven't given up
I'm not asking for a crown
I only want for you to go
But if you think you'll make me hate
So much that I no longer hope
I'll make damn sure that I am throned
I'll make damn sure that I am throned
That's enough of me and you
There's only so much time can do
Can we go our separate ways?
I've taken all that I can take
How much more moonlight can I waste?
How much more moonlight can I waste?

Warpaint

You come around
You c-come around in gold
Make me feel like my youth is getting old
Could you break me down just a little more
Still some space between me and the kitchen floor
And if I take some space to be a little brave
Do you have to yell until the windows break
Can we make this easy just for once
I don't wanna feel this just because
You like to break me, baby
And if I see that the fire's burned away
Every little ounce of me I had to pay
I will know you're smiling through the haze
Ashes on your face like warpaint
Cause you like to break me, baby
