[Intro: Tyler Watt]
Real one coming through living in the basement
Soft cough hazard feeling all contagious
Shaking on the floor, I don't wanna fight no more, yeah
Fuck this, I never wanna fake and pretend
Looked twice, three times, still no end
Everybody just bites the trend
[Verse 1: Andrew Wells]
So you think that everyone should feel ashamed
Even though we all make the same mistakes
Always filling up, always filling in when you scroll
I bet you love doing what you're told
I know that you and I are not the same
Because you always look for someone else to blame
I'm not giving up, I'm not giving in until you fold
And all your blood runs cold
[Chorus: Marcus Cisneros]
You just wanna waste a little time
Separate your heart and free your mind
Made a blood pact, gonna hold the storm back
No redemption, show me where ya soul at
Witness the descent from the divine
Wonder why we fall and never fly
Made a blood pact, gonna hold the storm back
(Hold the storm back)
[Post-Chorus: Andrew Wells]
You say you need some peace of mind
You should know it's not enough, not enough
I can feel it all the time
People vain and evil fucking bleeding me dry
[Verse 2: Tyler Watt & Marcus Cisneros]
Add a little shine to my step
So bright and dull to the rest
A bitter taste of regret, I feel it
Keep a little time with my step
Keep moving right then a left
You're out of sync with the pack
Who's counting?
[Chorus: Marcus Cisneros]
You just wanna waste a little time
Separate your heart and free your mind
Made a blood pact, gonna hold the storm back
No redemption, show me where ya soul at
Witness the descent from the divine
Wonder why we fall and never fly
Made a blood pact, gonna hold the storm back
(Hold the storm back)
[Post-Chorus: Andrew Wells]
You say you need some peace of mind
You should know it's not enough, not enough
I can feel it all the time
People vain and evil fucking bleeding me dry
[Outro: Marcus Cisneros, Tyler Watt]
(Bleeding me dry but I don't wanna die, no)
Everybody want to live, no one wanna die
Making claims and keeping the fire alive
(I don't wanna, I don't wanna go)
Even if the tides about to break
First thing in the morning, waking up a mistake, yeah
I don't wanna be a part of all the lambs who were sent to the slaughter
(I don't wanna, I don't wanna go)
Even if the ships do sink
Pour out the water until we get to the bank
Everybody want to live, no one wanna die
Making claims and keeping the fire alive
(I don't wanna, I don't wanna go)
Even if the tides about to break
First thing in the morning, waking up a mistake, yeah
I don't wanna be a part of all the lambs who were sent to the slaughter
(I don't wanna, I don't wanna go)
Even if the ships do sink
Pour out the water until we get to the bank
