Ballad of a Figure 8

[Verse 1]
Strangest panic trip on Earth
Imperfection in my universe
Board that plane then take the flight
Touch down as I woke before the headlights

[Pre-Chorus 1]
We were flying fast
But my eyelids the glass
Saw you on the dash
Now I'm gone

[Chorus]
(Oh...) But I'll see you every night
(Oh...) Lighting fires in mind
(Oh...) Playing tricks and wasting time
(Oh...) You were playing for the guilty givin'
I felt you by my side (ooh)

[Verse 2]
Deafening silence filled my mind
An empty space for me to will to life
The fake perfection I have drawn
Keeps me sane, for I cannot have the other one

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Darkness keeps me down
Keeps my head under the ground
Feel I'm coming 'round
Then I'm gone

[Chorus]
(Oh...) But I'll see you every night
(Oh...) Lighting fires in mind
(Oh...) Playing tricks and wasting time
(Oh...) You were playing for the guilty givin'
I felt you by my side (ooh)

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
(Oh...) But I see you every night
(Oh...) Lighting fires in mind
(Oh...) Playing tricks and wasting time
(Oh...) You were playing for the guilty givin'
I felt you by my side (ooh)
