I woke up in syncope
Springtime when she came for me
Frame of reference shifted and then I knew nothing
Now I live my life through her lens
Spineless bokeh radiance
Uninvited, unrequited, I know, I know
Craving you, the hour is late
Field of view desaturate
Sunlight takes me from the shelf
Not oppressed, oppress myself
Panic spreads out of the void
Dark room in a Polaroid
Think of nothing, think of nothing and breathe
I light the fuse and you tranquillise
Masking cues, apathetic highs
Admit none of the fault but take all of the prize
Slipping back as the embers die
She knows what I'd do for her
Riddles in the literature
Impostor syndrome hunting, cache the flow
I think I'm on to something
Tick tick tick so fucking slow
Normalise when I feel low
Digits tighten, armrest breaking
Down on my own again
So I light the fuse and you tranquillise
Masking cues, apathetic highs
Own none of the fault but take all of the prize
Slipping back as the embers die
The embers die
Grow towards the light
Grow towards the light
Grow towards the light
♪
I light the fuse and you tranquillise
Masking cues, apathetic highs
Own none of the fault but take all of the prize
Slipping back as the embers die
Why do I trust you now when I know your mind?
Why do I mask my thoughts when I know I'm right?
I'll take all the fault and grow and take all the prize
Why should I breathe in the ashes of your lies?
Why do I run the risk when I know you're mine?
Why do I mask my thoughts when I know I'm right?
Admit none of the fault but take all of the prize
Slipping back as the em-, as the embers die
