Gossip is for children And gospel is for saints So where does that leave me? The one who always runs away Something isn't right Deep inside my brain 'Cause you bask in the light But I'm stuck in the pain Such a lonely squid Always spitting ink Behind the barricade is where your heart was hid You didn't want me back until you burried it So I live underground until you let me in And we melt And we melt And we melt So while swimming here, A rough current hit But then your arms got tired And you let me sink What a crooked way through my crooked teeth Love your cigarette, it keeps burning me And I melt And it's strange how it goes From your head down to your toes You watched a poor boy overdose On being hurt and bravado I'm not changing Our time's just wasted I'll never fake it But all I know is you were better off before me
