Levity

[Verse 1]
I'm mentally undressed with my back against your mattress
I'm great at sleep but damn, I can use the practice
I never painted houses but I might just paint my own
Spattered explanations on scraps of paper and pixel-stained phones

[Chorus]
Levity is slowly killing me
I need some weight on my shoulders
To keep myself awake
Levity is slowly killing me
I need some weight on my shoulders
I'm sick of tempting fate

[Verse 2]
I'm mentally a mess, but it's so hard to confess
Vices hold me close from pre to post, so you should keep your distance
I never loved the weakness but I mean it
When I say this feels like home
The coffee pot is hot, and the shots are always cold
I'm a masochist
You're a lover, I'm a fighter and a pacifist
A rags-to-riches philanthropist
I'm a hopeless romantic
Lost in semantics again

[Chorus]
Levity is slowly killing me
I need some weight on my shoulders
To keep myself awake
Levity is slowly killing me
I need some weight on my shoulders
I'm sick of tempting fate

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Levity is slowly killing me
I need some weight on my shoulders
To keep myself awake
Levity is slowly killing me
I need some weight on my shoulders
I'm sick of tempting fate
I'll keep myself awake
