Lyrics

We were tight
But it falls apart as silver turns to blue
Waxing with a candlelight
And burning just for you
Allocate your sentiment
And stick it in a box
I've never been an extrovert
But I'm still breathing

Someone tried to do me ache
Someone tried to do me ache
Someone tried to do me ache. (it's what I'm afraid of)
Someone tried to do me ache. (it's what I'm afraid of)

With hindsight, I was more than blind
Lost without a clue
Thought I was getting carat gold
And what I got was you
Stuck inside the circumstances
It's lonely at the top
I've always been an introvert
Happily bleeding

Someone tried to do me ache
Someone tried to do me ache
Someone tried to do me ache. (it's what I'm afraid of)
Someone tried to do me ache. (it's what I'm afraid of)

4 7 2 3 9 8 5 - I gotta breathe to stay alive
And 1 4 2 9 7 8 - feels like I'm gonna suffocate
14 16 22 - this skin that turns to blister blue
Shoulders toes and knees, I'm 36 degrees
Shoulders toes and knees, I'm 36 degrees
Shoulders toes and knees, I'm 36 degrees
Shoulders toes and knees, I'm 36 degrees
