The Collapse

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I saw you get it when you wanted it

Then I gave it to you when you wanted it now

I know you're feeling that it's close to the end

Staring at me with your back on the ground

I know your world is in my hands

You know I pull the strings

I like to see how tall you stand

Cause if I wanted I could take it away

Get laid out

Or I'm gonna lay you out

Stay down

Or I'm gonna keep you down

I want it to break I want it to burn

I wanna bury you until it hurts

And I'll take I don't ask

This breath will be your last

Do you feel the collapse?

You feel the pressure as I'm pulling you in

You're crumbling under the weight of the game

Before you let it all just go to your head

Now you're praying that you're walking away

You know your world is in my hands

You know I pull the strings

I like to see how tall you stand

Cause if I wanted I could take it away

Get laid out

Or I'm gonna lay you out

Stay down

Or I'm gonna keep you down

I want it to break I want it to burn

I wanna bury you until it hurts

And I'll take I don't ask

This breath will be your last

Do you feel the collapse?

I want it to break I want it to burn [x4]

Get laid out

Or I'm gonna lay you out

So stay down

Or I'm gonna keep you down [x2]

Get laid out

Or I'm gonna lay you out

Stay down

Or I'm gonna keep you down

I want it to break I want it to burn

I wanna bury you until it hurts

And I'll take I don't ask

This breath will be your last

Do you feel the collapse? [x3]
