Lyrics
Ides

I'm not scared
Life is a game full of false starts
Losing myself inside of the scars
I'm losing myself
I don't know what to do
Losing myself
Thought I was over you
Tried to march through
I was battle-born
These signs have kept me that steady course
I saw the same view every day
Same you every way
Just make mistakes cause you'll never be the same again
And I'm not worth your while, but what's your while worth again?
I did my best to keep all of your fucking secrets in
But now they're bleeding out from every God damn open end
I did my best to keep my restless head off of your floor and out of your bed
Convinced I'll die alone, but I'll do it with a smile on
Cause I did it on my own
Just make mistakes cause you'll never be the same again
And I'm not worth your while, but what's your while worth again?
I did my best to keep all of your fucking secrets in
But now they're bleeding out from every God damn open end
Can you draw breath in like a party you passed?
Rip me out of your lungs and into your flask
Can you draw breath in like a party you passed?
Rip me out of your lungs and into your flask
I can't decline here
I held in my grief
(Can you draw breath in like a party you passed?
Rip me out of your lungs and into your flask)
I gave a simple choice
The drugs or me
(Can you draw breath in like a party you passed?)
Just make mistakes cause you'll never be the same again
And I'm not worth your while, but what's your while worth again?
I did my best to keep all of your fucking secrets in
But now they're bleeding out from every God damn open end
