[Verse 1]
Bittersweet, color-coded empathy
Moves around with red impunity
Safrazine hijacks the sanity
It's a rinse and repeat
[Pre-Chorus]
You barely see that glowing path
Hoping the fog will clear up fast
Next time the lightning pulls you back
From the gray shore, and your brain storms
[Chorus]
You won't let no chemical deceive ya
If it's only gonna leave you brokenhearted
Baby, butterflies are justified
When love only leaves you where you started
All the nerves in your bonеs
Keep you up on your toes
See why you're dancing on the fеnce
Won't let no chemical deceive ya
If it's only gonna leave you brokenhearted (Mm-mm-mm)
[Verse 2]
Said, "No more" (No more)
"Twisting common logic into folklore"
No, you stuck to your guns until that blue force
Left you wounded in sub-atomic turf war
Now you're unsure
[Pre-Chorus]
You even see that glowing path, uh (See that glowing path)
Or just the bottom of that flask (Bottom of that flask)
Next time the lightning pulls you back
From the gray shore, and your brain storms
[Chorus]
You won't let no chemical deceive ya
If it's only gonna leave you brokenhearted
(If it's only gonna leave you brokenhearted)
Baby, butterflies are justified (Oh-oh-oh)
When love only leaves you where you started
(Leaves you where you started)
All the nerves in your bones
Keep you up on your toes (Toes)
See why you're dancing on the fence (Dancing on)
Won't let no chemical deceive ya
If it's only gonna leave you brokenhearted (Mm-mm-mm)
[Outro]
The fear is frozen in time
Pure fight-or-flight
But the wheels keep turning inside
Will they ignite?

painful. i had to rewrite like five times over 8 months until i did the falsetto verses + it finally felt right. STINT was convinced i would never finish it. then once i finally got the vocal i was cool w/ (3 weeks before the release date) everything jus sounded like a wall of noise – then we finall...
