Thinking of all the hints
You know it feels like running in a dream
I can't sprint
Eyes up and toes to the sky, I still try
Something holds me back
Like I'm not the one you'd want to do like this
If it's only a problem with him
Go ahead and take me off of your list
I'll forget all the cards in my hand
Long as I'm left out of the mix
Quit bitchin' day and night
It feels different than you'd like to
But that could be alright (Alright)
Oh you shouldn't have to pay to play
Go and jump out the lane
Backflip off of the bridge
The current down beneath it swallows me whole again
Soaked to the bone
You don't know that I know
I could air it out when I get back home
(No no)
Fuck where you've been
Probably overkill to place it when you're under my chin
But it's a chore ignoring all of the tricks
Don't be so complacent, this could be the end
So if it's only a problem with him
Go ahead and take me off of your list
I'll forget all the cards in my hand
Long as I'm left out of the mix
(Ahhooohhhhh)
When it's written on your face
It doesn't take more evidence to crack the case
Am I a fool for being good at this game?
Call a draw and we'll share the blame

When I'm on the outside, face to the pavement I
Wish I could fake it when I'm riding the high
Fall into your eyes, they're like the lake this time
Draw me under til I'm out of sight
I'm always dreaming of the next day
But the sunlight could reveal me like an x-ray
And I mean it in the best way
All I wanna do is take your breath away
But it could never be mine
You go and have a good time
I'll catch up down the line
Back on the outside, thinking maybe I
Should turn around and pack it up for the night
Falling from the sky, was flying up too high
Back is smoking, now there's nowhere to hide
When I'm on the outside, I
Wish I could fake it when I'm riding the high
Fall into your eyes, they're like the lake this time
Draw me under til I'm out of sight
Always dreaming of the next day
But the sunlight could reveal me like an x-ray
I mean it in the best way
All I wanna do is take your breath away
Beneath my wings I feel the wind change
And nothing's promised, but I always count on gravity
Pulls me back to old days
Even though my feet were grounded, I felt heavenly

Don't look at me with your pretty boy gaze
Go find the words if you've got something to say
I told you there's nothing to fear, quit acting brave
And the coast has been clear, come swim my way
It wouldn't change a thing, uhuh
Oh no oh no oh no oh no oh no
No need to play it safe
I think way back when I tried reading your palms
Said when you're dreaming, do your teeth come out your gums?
Don't get yourself caught up underneath the waves
Oh no, this shit don't go away
It's all the same
It wouldn't change a thing
You know your place
No need to play it safe
Don't look at me with your pretty boy gaze
Go find the words if you've got something to say
I told you there's nothing to fear, quit acting brave
And the coast has been clear, come swim my way (My way)
I had the ocean in my hands when I kept them together
Let them come apart and thought I'd lost it forever
Vapor in the stratosphere, it waits to be heavier
When it comes back down to me I'll soak it up better

I'll meet you there when everyone is gone
Sensory deprivation chamber
We'll float on
Bolton potholes, open swallow
I feel like a kid
Trying on your clothes when I'm hollow
They fit like eyelids
And I'm crying
Our backyard in July
The lights come on at night
When the golden from next door runs through
I wish that I could move like that too
(AHHhHHHh)
Mind is crowded, silence pounding
It's loud as a gun
Irises drowning, thought I'd found him
But I know what I've won
It's the same place I came from
If our vessel ruptures it won't
Ever be in vain
So how can I complain?

Living in the right time
Is it really enough?
And could you read the inside
If I opened up?
Bury my head in the sand
Remember all I could've said
I play around, but I swear it's true
The way you stare me down I could be see-through
I'll sing like a bird if you need me to
And give up everything I ever knew
Would it be enough?
Can't see the green light
Should pull the rose glasses off
Within inches all night
Am I getting warmer now?
Bury my head in the sand
Remember all I could've said
I play around, but I swear it's true
The way you stare me down I could be see-through
I'll sing like a bird if you need me to
And give up everything I ever knew
Would it be enough
If I opened up again?

Putting on a fisheye lens
I see all of the bodies bending out for the edge
Periphery is gripping onto all that I've had
Oh it might be that keeping my head up
Is warping the past
Where can I look from here?
I'm tired of being floored
I wish we could disappear
With just one foot out the door
One foot out the door
Uh-uhhh
I know our vision is dead
Give up the fiction and then
Go be the bigger man
Hold my breath in the deep end
I know our vision is dead
Stay down and never forget
We're betting everything
Voice is dropping low enough to pass
I'll be the best in limbo if I always look back
Shuffling to mix up my tracks
I don't need anybody finding out where I'm at
So where can I look from here?
It's too much to be ignored
I know I might disappear
If I leave one foot in the door
One foot in the door
Uh-uhhh
I know our vision is dead
Give up the fiction and then
Go be the bigger man
Hold my breath in the deep end
I know our vision is dead
Stay down and never forget
We're betting everything
Where can I look from here?
I wish we could disappear
