lyrics

It all just goes to show how
It’s just the pressure of lying in this bed
I’ve made it all up cause
I can’t stand failures, I pretend

So I picture perfect lullibies,
Look at my life and idealize
I do it for fun

I love comparing time and medicine
My ever-growing lack of hesitance
To walk out of a room
Voices buzz
Patience is thin here
When forced smiles tend to linger
Just like you do

I change my face with ease
Just like these clothes, or my disease
That I like to say I have
Burn one down to keep my head clear
Of awkwardness and numb drunk of cheap beer
And lack of light

So I pitch Her perfect lullibies
Look at my life and idealize
I do it for fun

I love comparing time and medicine
My ever-growing lack of hesitance
To walk out of a room
Voices buzz
Patience is thin here
When forced smiles tend to linger
Just like you do
