Waist Down

V1: Fading slowly only know the parts we show
it’s not enough to hold on
hoping that the walls come down
Dreaming of the way we practice out our love
These struggling actors so tough
hoping for another round
Don’t you have another way to keep us up all night
Tell me that you’ve got something up your sleeve
to make this wrong feel right
CH: We’re only happy from the waist down
Giving ourselves the runaround
V2: We’re still scratching at the surface
Every touch called as a witness
All our nights called into question now
Tell me don’t you have another way to keep us feeling this high
Gotta hope I got something up my sleeve
to make this wrong feel right
BR: We’re still hiding in dark corners
Fueled by lovers gone before us

Part of You
03:09
|

|
V1: Tear my heart out cause it suits you
Take up all my air so I can breathe you
Above me now act like a virtue
Pulling harder, harder than you need to
I know I’m better, better off now
leaving it alone
I know I’m still avoiding knowing
wanna stay in the unknown
CH: Holding on like I’m afraid of falling
Craving a little release from wanting
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you want
What you wanna do
Cause I’m a part of you
V2: Every moment like a portrait
Body framed and caged within your tight grip
Just look away cause I can't fight it
Matching every move got me addicted
I know I’m better, better off now
That I should be free
Told me that I should run far from you
But these legs won’t carry me
CH2: Letting it go is the kinder option
Walking away knowing we’ve got something
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you want
What you wanna do
Cause I’m a part of you

Body Talk
03:12

|
V1: Doesn’t take a lot to know my days are numbered
Can you draw a map to where you disappear
Like a pill lost in your cabinet I’ve expired
Doesn’t take a lot to know but I don’t want to hear
Ch: Until you say it out loud it doesn’t really count
So I shut your mouth
Take up the space somehow
Let my body talk
Cause it’s got a lot to say now
Until you say it out loud it doesn’t really count
Take up every sound
Won’t let you spit it out
Let my body talk
Choking every word from your mouth
V2: I’ve become a master of distraction
Using every skill I’ve learned to silence truth
Your impending loss leads to some shady actions
But I’ll do anything it takes
I’m not losing you
Br: So don't say you wanna talk
Don't say you wanna talk
Don't say it
Don't let the ball drop

Over You
03:49
|
|||
|
V1: Digging deeper roots of fear that weed me out
Cut it out
Follow orders, keep in line or be shut down
Cut it out
Why do you control my heart
to take me down and then apart?
Egg shell walking, barely talking
Different now
CH: Why, the way you love ain't right
The way you love
The way you love
Why can't I get over you?
V2: Drunk on promise opened you before your time
Gotta pour you out
Couldn't see it, blinded by a perfect sight
Couldn't help myself
Why do you control my heart
to take me down and then apart?
I'm treading water, trading offers
Waiting around
BR: Why do you control my heart
to take me down and then apart?
Why do you control my heart
Control my heart?
Why can't I get over you?

Last Time
03:09
|
|||
|
V1: How'd I get so close?
Tripping over the same rope
Should have called it
Falling as you float
Say "that's the way it goes"
V2: How'd I get so mad?
Crawling through familiar sand
Pull me closer just to pull me back
Show me the upper-hand
CH: I said this is the last time
I said this is the last time
You're not getting away with it
You're not getting away with it
V3: How'd I get so wrong?
Undo all the work I've done
Thought I was stronger
Am I the only one
Caught up for way too long
BR: Don't fool me just tell me I'm on my own, on my own
Just fool me don't tell me I'm on my own, on my own

Cross The Line
03:55
|
|||
|
V1: Let’s start talking ‘bout what I wanna do to you
My mind is racing
I’m a car crash
Look away
Going up in flames for you
I’ve seen it all so this feels stranger
Wait for your call
Your face is danger
Let’s start talking ‘bout what I wanna do to you
Pre: Feels the right fit
You’re like an ache that just won’t quit
Ch: Just one touch I’m underworked and overtired
Oh give me something to try
Been dreaming every night
We give it up and cross the line
Waste my time
I’m overwhelmed
Under the wire
Eyes that cut like a knife
Been dreaming every night
We give it up and cross the line
Let’s finally cross the line this time
V2: Let’s start talking ‘bout what I wanna do to you
It’s no secret
I’m a torn down, messed up sucker that’s hooked on you
I’ve never had a taste that’s sweeter
So take it all
Just pull the trigger
Let’s start talking ‘bout what I wanna do to you
Br: I’ve seen it all so this feels stranger
Wait for your call
Your face is danger
Let’s start talking ‘bout what I wanna do
Let’s start talking ‘bout what I wanna do

Ghost
03:43
|
|||
|
V1: Paper thin I waste away
Caught up in an endless phase
Trying to tell myself you'll fade
While clinging to the mess we made
Keep me waiting anticipating
You keep me waiting anticipating
And now I know what I've been missing
Ch: Cause I feel your body like a ghost
Breathing in me everywhere I go
Even when she's with me
We're not alone
Her hands are your hands wrapped around my throat
V2: You are best loved from afar
Cause when you're close we both leave scars
So bury me to make it stop
And don't come back to dig me up
You keep me waiting anticipating
keep me waiting anticipating
And now I know what I've been missing
