Dazed and in a pair of arms too familiar to be anyone's but my own
Davey speaks across the hallway to my mother in a different room
Roses in our dinner, roses in our heads again
Follow me into the river, finally we're alone
Unsure of consequences my actions slip out around misguided thoughts and selfish ideas
Contemplating mortal spirits I sit and wait in anhedonia
Tongue tired painting nails I've bitten again despite your warnings of boredom
I see myself knee deep in the ocean
I'm sorry if I leave you
Always waiting
Roses in our dinner, roses in our heads again
Nothing sounds more like love then crying in a restaurant with the same pair of eyes looking back at you
Coming home to you I follow you far past the last tram stop to roses in our dinner, to roses in our heads again
I see myself knee deep in the ocean
I see myself far away from here
I'm sorry if I leave you
I'm sorry if I leave you or if I stick around
Use me up
Feast on my bones and my flesh
Kill me quicker
You'll be sicker
Roses in our dinner, roses in our heads again
Wait until it's over, tell me I'll be there again
Unsure of consequences my actions slip out around misguided thoughts and selfish ideas
Longing for and missing are different, instincts are there for a reason
Contemplating mortal spirits I sit and wait in anhedonia
Hating myself and wondering why I'm different in ways I've lost my mind before
I'm heeding the feeling I'm pleading for reasons to tell myself that I'm happy or normal or coping or breathing in some way I've seen and been fearing I'm nearing I'm hearing it's over
I see myself knee deep in the ocean
I see myself far away from here
Less connected and drifting apart
Is our fate to be locked apart
I'm sorry if I leave you
I'm sorry if I leave you
Let me get drop my cigarette high every fucking night
