[Verse 1]
I shrugged it off
'Cause you probably didn't know that you were being mean
That's what I tell myself
'Cause this wasn't how I planned it out in my dreams
And now and then
I get a glimpse of what it's like to be something
And now we fall apart

[Pre-Chorus]
In the garden, you can call me happy
In the garden, you can call me happy

[Chorus]
Slow down
Because you know it's been some time since we last talked
Don't shut me out
Because you know that you're in control of your thoughts
Don't play those games
Don't you dare waste my breath
Do you think you can stay
A bit longer than the rest?

[Verse 2]
And I'll keep on dancing
If It'll make you happy
How long can you dance for
Until you get tired of me?
Take some time to realize
[Pre-Chorus]
That the pain, it punctures through my eyes
Yeah, the pain, it punctures through my eyes

[Chorus]
Slow down
Because you know it's been some time since we last talked
Don't shut me out
Because you know that you're in control of your thoughts
Don't play those games
Don't you dare waste my breath
Do you think you can stay
A bit longer than the rest?

[Bridge]
Now you'll take a hit, then go to bed
Just to wake up and the pieces don't fit
And I killed my mind because I know that you'll find
Another way to slip inside
Now you'll take a hit, then go to bed
Just to wake up and the pieces don't fit
And I killed my mind because I know that you'll find
Another way to slip inside

[Outro]
So I'll kill mine
So I'll kill mine
So I'll kill mine
Why?
So I'll kill my mind
'Cause I know that they'll find
Another way to slip inside
