I know you look at me Like someone who's like Vaseline So slippery I can't escape The way I feel when I'm awake I see you standing there Those eyes and Baby shambles hair You stall, you start again Fall hard and taste like saccharine And if we're gonna go down Well then it might as well hurt And if you wanna start now Will you make sure that I'm there first? Because I don't jump that fast these days And sometimes I'm a total waste I'm trying hard I swear I am It's hard to tell when I can't stand But I'm still here The eyes always die first The dam we built began to burst Dingy hotels lost their charm Our days were focused on our arms They said we'd fade to black But somehow I never believed that Back seat blues they felt so sad Won't resurrect til you get back And if we're gonna go down Well then it might as well hurt And if you're gonna start now Will you make sure that I'm there first? Because I don't jump that fast these days And sometimes I'm a total waste I'm trying hard I swear I am It's hard to tell when I can't stand But I'm still here I know you look at me Like someone who's like Vaseline So slippery I can't escape The way I feel When I'm awake It's not about cutting ties and leaving And all the lies and the facts That they told you were true But you and me can do our own thing Our own way
