Sick Happy

I tried to drown in your flame

somehow i let the fire escape

and i can only blame myself

a rubber soul is hard to sell

you pull me in and push me out

you tie me up and tie me down

you give me space, i'm locked in chains

i want your fire, i need your faith

you always knew just what to say

never misspoke a single word

i pleaded guilty once again

so hand me down

my sentence now, i am condemned

the victim and the criminal

i'm on knees in silent prayer

for one last touch my twisted valentine

when every second lasts a thousand years

and every shot glass holds a million tears

and every race ends in a brand new start

there's no soul left but you can take some heart

(with my hands up) i'll give myself up for you

so take me down, my time has come up
