[Verse 1]
First went wrong is hard to find
We're paralyzed, we apologize
Our hell is a good life
Last went wrong but where's my prize, under the lights?
Can we call it in? We'll be on the road

[Pre-Chorus]
Can we stop?
When we stop, my back will turn your face towards the fence

[Chorus]
What I thought it was it isn't now
What I thought it was it isn't now

[Verse 2]
All this weight is honest worse
We're moderate; we modernize
'Til our hell is a good life
All we know is to forget how to do right
Colouring in the black hole

[Pre-Chorus]
Can we stop?
When we stop my hands will shake
My eyes will burn, my throat will ache
Watching you turn from me towards your friends

[Chorus]
What I thought it was it isn't now
What I thought it was it isn't
Punishment to stall what is done
What I thought was in is missing out
What I thought it was it isn't now

[Outro]
There's a pattern in the system
There's a bullet in the gun
That's why I tried to save you
But it can't be done
It can't be done
