lyrics
-verse1-
the age of break-ups texts
drown in debts, gossip, sex
it's reflex, let's just bless
atheists, narcissists
stacked decks and second dates
infecting real with fake
love e-mails, lost details
reflection sealed that fate
cover the cuts we hide
inside sleeves filled with lies
wipe them sick off your streets
like the sleep in your eyes
some value these extremes
as cleansing the unclean
sadness, hate, happiness
but sometimes we feel nothing
-chorus-
when I think about that, baby
I lose my mind
my mind's like an asylum, maybe
but my hands are tied
-verse2-
even if the dead would sleep
or dreams could erase, this
brain wrapped up in white sheets
has me feeling racist
like light in the prism
scattered colors glisten
reflect the difference
or burn in our prisons
the lies our future speaks
horizons we've defined
let me piss on a piece
so I can call it mine
hide the pain like it's a
new stain on the carpet
hold that brain tight, you may
forget that we've lost it
-chorus-
when I think about that, baby
I lose my mind
our mind's like an asylum, maybe
but my hands are tied
-outro-
wake up sober, grown and older
paralyzed and so much colder,
realized that you've hurt her
you're paranoid and introverted
annoyed or deserted, murdered
diagnosed and disordered
pills each day, like torture
remember today's abortion
was last night's endorphin
the age of break-ups texts
drown in debts, gossip, sex
it's reflex, let's just bless
atheists, narcissists
stacked decks and second dates
infecting real with fake
love e-mails, lost details
reflection sealed that fate
cover the cuts we hide
inside sleeves filled with lies
wipe them sick off your streets
like the sleep in your eyes
some value these extremes
as cleansing the unclean
sadness, hate, happiness
but sometimes we feel nothing
-chorus-
when I think about that, baby
I lose my mind
my mind's like an asylum, maybe
but my hands are tied
-verse2-
even if the dead would sleep
or dreams could erase, this
brain wrapped up in white sheets
has me feeling racist
like light in the prism
scattered colors glisten
reflect the difference
or burn in our prisons
the lies our future speaks
horizons we've defined
let me piss on a piece
so I can call it mine
hide the pain like it's a
new stain on the carpet
hold that brain tight, you may
forget that we've lost it
-chorus-
when I think about that, baby
I lose my mind
our mind's like an asylum, maybe
but my hands are tied
-outro-
wake up sober, grown and older
paralyzed and so much colder,
realized that you've hurt her
you're paranoid and introverted
annoyed or deserted, murdered
