The Price

[Verse 1]
I just don't sleep
I just don't lie as well
I just don't buy it still
See, I've just been tired as hell
I've just been trying to find a seam
How can you lie to yourself?
How can you pretend that you're free when you're so tied to yourself?
Strings color my intonations
Pardon me if my heart is broke
I got no love for imitations
Manipulations of honest folk
Everyday, they feed us all despair
Everyday, they feed us all this hope
Everyday its in the conversation
Ramp it up until we all implode

[Bridge]
Black hole sucking all the energy
Out of every path forward
Need to make belief
Like it ain't really what you ask for?
Nothing left within but all the hunger
So you just snack more
Snack more
Eat it up, eat it like

[Chorus]
Send me down, send me down, send me all the way down
Send me down, send me down
Send me down, send me down, send me all the way down
Send me down, send me down

[Verse 2]
I still don't sleep
I just lay wide awake
My love is not a token
For you to buy then take
I feel the heat
Been burned by my mistakes
I will not blame myself, though
'Least not this time, this place
We cannot do this alone
I feel in my teeth, in my bones
Fight for we
Weaken our fight 'til we own
A slice of our own
Ay, ay, ay
If price is no option, no options at all
Tighten the strings it's like tightening their guard
'Til we take down these titans, no gods
It's never the price, it's the cost

[Chorus]
Send me down, send me down, send me all the way down
Send me down, send me down
Send me down, send me down, send me all the way down
Send me down, send me down
(Black hole sucking all the energy
Out of every path forward)
Send me down, send me down, send me all the way down
Send me down, send me down
(Need to make belief
Like it ain't really what you ask for?)
Send me down, send me down, send me all the way down
Send me down, send me down
(Nothing left within but all the hunger
So you just snack more)
Send me down, send me down, send me all the way down
Send me down, send me down
(Snack more
Eat it up, eat it like)
Send me down, send me down, send me all the way down
Send me down, send me down
(Black hole sucking all the energy
Out of every path forward)
Send me down, send me down, send me all the way down
Send me down, send me down
(Need to make belief
Like it ain't really what you ask for?)

[Outro: Spoken]
They're charming, they tend to have incredible charm, uhm, and that's one way that they pull you in
[?], until you realize it's all about them right? Yeah, it's all about them
It just feels like there's certain people who walk around the world and they just treat people whatever way they- they want
