Swallow
Reach out your hand and touch me
Oh, I know I'm feeling lucky
You just crack my patience
Every time I'm on your waitlist, oh
And what's been dead is living
In my twitching fingers stiffening
Every time I pry another blank reply
From your backside
Pride, I swallow again
And if I don't feel the atom bomb
Out on the left side of my bed
The light might break me on my own
But in the shadow I get rest
And as you turn the clock back
See the smoke that turns our feet black
I become complacent
Every time you kiss my bracelet
Oh, pride
I swallow again
Pride, I swallow again
And if I don't feel the atom bomb
Out on the left side of my bed
The light might break me on my own
But in the shadow I get rest
The city's escaping on a boat
But I'll take you if I can
Break it all down in the atom bomb
Right out the center of my chest
Sometimes I want to ride alone
When I'm dead set in my headrest
Sometimes I want you all alone
When I'm dead set, we're not dead yet
Sometimes I want to ride alone
When I'm dead set in my headrest
Sometimes I want you all alone
When I'm dead set, we're not dead yet
Oh, I know I'm feeling lucky
You just crack my patience
Every time I'm on your waitlist, oh
And what's been dead is living
In my twitching fingers stiffening
Every time I pry another blank reply
From your backside
Pride, I swallow again
And if I don't feel the atom bomb
Out on the left side of my bed
The light might break me on my own
But in the shadow I get rest
And as you turn the clock back
See the smoke that turns our feet black
I become complacent
Every time you kiss my bracelet
Oh, pride
I swallow again
Pride, I swallow again
And if I don't feel the atom bomb
Out on the left side of my bed
The light might break me on my own
But in the shadow I get rest
The city's escaping on a boat
But I'll take you if I can
Break it all down in the atom bomb
Right out the center of my chest
Sometimes I want to ride alone
When I'm dead set in my headrest
Sometimes I want you all alone
When I'm dead set, we're not dead yet
Sometimes I want to ride alone
When I'm dead set in my headrest
Sometimes I want you all alone
When I'm dead set, we're not dead yet
