lyrics

Existential crisis has clasped me in its jaws,
I always rub my eyes until they are red and raw.
I'm not afraid to cry except when I'm with you,
I'm choking when we fight, my face is turning blue.
I've walked a thousand Kamel miles and wound up here.
You barely roused me from the sleep I had last year.
Still I found something to latch me to your leg,
Not hearing sound till you found someone else instead.

If you run away from me, if you open up your eyes,
Please just stay away from me when I wear a new disguise.
If you ever have to see me in the smoky lights,
Hope you never have to see me after tonight.

Of all the fame that I could ever hope to earn,
I'd give it all away if I could just have her.
Sometimes it feels as though the world has reached an end,
That's what I tell myself on another drunken binge.
My body's rotting fast, it quickly hits the core.
I run full steam ahead, not knowing what's in store.
Here I lie in bed just hoping that there's more
To tie me to this world I've tried to leave before.

If you run away from me, if you open up your eyes,
Please just stay away from me when I wear a new disguise.
If you ever have to see me in the smoky lights,
Hope you never have to see me after tonight.
