Everybody look to me like I want to die
(Who am I)
I never really took the time to save our lives
(Who am I)
I want to sit back and watch our lives go by
(Who am I)
If you're okay then I'll be okay this time
(Who am I)
I'm unbreakable
I want you to know what was on my mind
If you want to get to know me
All you have to do is look through me
Look through my brain
Cause I don't know where it is
If you find a reason
That will run the risk
Of getting to know me
And I don't want you to look through me
I'm too silhouetted to even know me
I'm too opaque to even know me
I don't even care about the game
But I know it's time to go now
I don't even want to sound lame
But I know I run this show
December is the name that will be on the playlists
Next to everyone that's huge (Its true)
Everybody look to me like I want to die
(Who am I)
I never really took the time to save our lives
(Who am I)
I want to sit back and watch our lives go by
(Who am I)
If you're okay then I'll be okay this time
(Who am I)
I'm the drum still keeping the beat
of a scarred heart
I'm the son still seeking the head
from a dark star
Never one for convention
or bringing guns to contention
Loaded questions for the things
I never wanted to mention
Like what do you do when you left the door open
and you're hoping that you'll find the stength
but time's running out?
Let it slip away like your family and freinds?
Couldn't stand it again?
Weak in the knees?
Mines buckled down
Stuck in the fall but it was you who changed colors, dawg
Where were you when I spent days in bed?
A stop-loss
Coin toss
Put our bond up for sale
Then you turned tail so you could save face, I guess
I grab my soul and I'm dusting it off
I pledge this
Could pull the dreamers from the grave, I bet
Yeah, I'll never find a start on my back
So you won't catch me sleeping till I'm laid to rest
Everybody look to me like I want to die
(Who am I)
I never really took the time to save our lives
(Who am I)
I want to sit back and watch our lives go by
(Who am I)
If you're okay then I'll be okay this time
(Who am I)
My mind only seems to be half past fine
Thinking about past time, the peace times
Never think about all the fucked up lines
Cause the clock only seems to be half past nine
Yeah, they crack smiles
but the smiles cracked the black past
It hurts first but I hope you can laugh last
Pass time til the corpses stand still
Pass on all the warmth you can't feel
Everybody look to me like I want to die
(Who am I)
I never really took the time to save our lives
(Who am I)
I want to sit back and watch our lives go by
(Who am I)
If you're okay then I'll be okay this time
(Who am I)
My mind only seems to be half past fine
Thinking about past time, the peace times
Never think about all the fucked up lines
Cause the clock only seems to be half past nine
Yeah, they crack smiles
but the smiles cracked the black past
It hurts first but I hope you can laugh last
Pass time til the corpses stand still
Pass on all the warmth you can't feel
