It takes more than wealth to introduce a god of your own
It takes stones, it takes mud, it takes hands
It takes plague after plague after plague after plague
It takes a lowercase of faith
It takes knees on the ground
It takes heads looking down
At anyone but yourself
At anything but myself
I shot the sparrow from suspended flight
I took its wings, learned its song and rehearsed
Appetite filled with curses in hand
Spread them around at incriminating rates
[Pre-Chorus]
I’ll read the lines between
I’ll write the lines between
Can you see them?
Look, I’m not perfect
I’ll change with the new wave
I’ll adjust to everything
Everything and everything
But anything I know
[Chorus]
I’m right when I just don't care
I'll feel when you give me air
And I’ll suffocate and not care
I’ll breathe then I’ll steal the air
Can I get a little less conversation and a lot more action please?
No one is looking at me
So I guess I don’t exist at all
Exist at all
Happiness and a shivering gun, yeah
Happiness and a shivering gun
Shivering gun
[Pre-Chorus]
I’ll read the lines between
I’ll write the lines between
Can you see them?
I’m not perfect
I’ll change with the new wave
I’ll adjust to everything
Everything and everything
But anything I know
[Chorus]
I’m right when I just don't care
I'll feel when you give me air
And I’ll suffocate and not care
I’ll breathe then I’ll steal the air
[Outro Chorus]
I’m right when I just don't care
I'll feel when you give me air
And I’ll suffocate and not care
I’ll breathe then I’ll steal the air
