Lifeline

(Verse 1)

(Yeah)

(Let me show you something)

The thing about life is about choices
And how about’ mine centered round profits
Couldn’t resist my crooked empire
Ended up being burned by fire
I’m the man behind the wheel
Got a problem, then what’s the deal?
You should learn to trust your captain
I’m the man who knows what’s happenin’

(Chorus)

Livin’ life without a lifeline
Entertaining people with my plot line
Livin’ life without a lifeline
Entertaining people for my! (Whoo)
Drifting by on an inky sea
With this spotlight on me
I’ll bathe in its afterglow
I’m gonna steal the show!

There’s a monster inside of me and it’s taking shape
Its bitter agony, stuck on replay
Relivin’ my nightmares, caught by my own snare
Relivin’ my nightmares, drowned in dark despair

(Verse 2)

The thing about life is about failure
And how it’s one of life’s toughest teachers
All my friends had marooned me
I couldn’t even start a family
The world is rotting ‘round me
My inner demons scream like banshees
Henry used to be my partner
That man should’ve pushed me harder

Like a ship on a one way trip
Ink drips as I lose my grip
Does it hurt them as it does to me
Or is my greed devouring me

(Chorus)

Livin’ life without a lifeline
Entertaining people with my plot line
Livin’ life without a lifeline
Entertaining people for my! (Whoo)
Bendy and my ink machine
The things that ruined me
I’ll never let you go
I should just let you go!

(Bridge)

The storms a-brewin’ and it’s looking like the worst case
The boat keeps rocking at a rapidly increased pace
The waves are growing and they’re hitting even harder
It’s looking slimmer that we’ll ever reach the harbor

The storms a-brewin’ and it’s looking like the worst case
The boat keeps rocking at a rapidly increased pace
The waves are growing and they’re hitting even harder
It’s looking slimmer that we’ll ever reach the harbor

(Chorus)

Livin’ life without a lifeline
Entertaining people with my plot line
Livin’ life without a lifeline
Entertaining people for my! (Whoo)
This is my tragic story
My ship crashed way too early
Now that ship needs its captain
Now you see what must happen!
