How To Start

No one needs to know where you lie

Or why you only like beginnings

It feels like you’ve known where it’s all leading

Like fire knows it’s burning what you feed it

And the party’s dead

No one’s making sense

When she pulls me up like a cigarette

“This is not your place

These are not your friends

And it’s obvious”

Yeah, it’s obvious

You make it so easy

Rolling in this feeling

So why do I picture you leaving

Before we begin

Hold me, don’t speak

Show me how to start

Show me how to start

Help me lean off the edge

The first time I can’t see where the end is

And the water’s deep

Your head’s underneath

And it comes between you and everything

You give warning signs

I see flashing lights

Let me drown inside

Yeah, let’s drown…

You make it so easy

Rolling in this feeling

So why do I picture you leaving

Before we begin

Hold me, don’t speak

Show me how to start

Show me how to start

You give warning signs

I see flashing lights

You can use me love

You can use me up

Pick my body clean

Sell my soul to me

Let me drown inside

Yeah let’s drown

You make it so easy

Rolling in this feeling

So why do I picture you leaving

Before we begin

Hold me, don’t speak

Show me how to start
