[Verse 1]
It’s easy in time
That’s what they say
I got money on my mind
The only way
You’ve been sleeping at night
I gotta say
That it cuts like knives
The way you lay
What have I become?
We'll never know
Barbed wire on my tongue
Your cuts show
Emotional youth goes:
"It burns slow,"
The Abyss caught throats
Like I don't know

[Chorus]
You’ve got words like bullets, your magazine is full
Dragging me apart like gravitational pull
You’ve got skin like diamonds, cutting like a drill
Separate the halves like I’m taking these pills - that’s fine
They say it’s easier anyway

[Verse 2]
It’s different now that I have laughed through half a year of hell and I could write a million words still buying what I sell
Because I'm easing into everything, I don’t listen to anything, my greatest inhibitions tell me that I’m getting good at giving in
Even the time that we’ve made is covered in haze of how we constructed the way that we live that's not how it is but maybe to give and how it’s supposed to be
And I am still making time, pretending I’m fine with imperfections in my mirror but by design in fact it’s me that I fear
[Chorus]
You’ve got words like bullets, your magazine is full
Dragging me apart like gravitational pull
You’ve got skin like diamonds, cutting like a drill
Separate the halves like I’m taking these pills - that’s fine
They say it’s easier anyway

[Bridge]
Your image slipping
Tell me what you’ve been missing - is it
The same thing that I’ve been
The same thing that I’ve been
