Chernobyl

We've found all these ways to talk
Like copper wires and waves of light
Be thankful you can still sleep through the night

I'm not telling anybody
I'm counting on the antibodies
To try their best, to just put up a fight

And if I don't make it back from this
I just want you to know
I never thought it was too slow

And it feels like I'm between alive and dead
Personal Chernobyl in my head
If we could find a way to decelerate
Cause lately I just haven't been thinking straight

It's obvious when I get undressed
That we failed to contain the process
These spots all over my skin and in my eyes

That you've left on me over the years
I can feel the blood in my ears
Rushing up to block out all the lies

And if I don't make it back from this
I just want you to know
I never thought it was too slow

And it feels like I'm between alive and dead
Personal Chernobyl in my head
If we could find a way to decelerate
Cause lately I just haven't been thinking straight

It's the little things that matter most to me
Like subatomic particles and proton beams
Stop the chain reaction, I'm just trying to get some traction
It's the little things that matter most to me

If we could find a way to decelerate
If we could find a way to decelerate
If we could find a way to decelerate
If we could find a way

And it feels like I'm between alive and dead
Personal Chernobyl in my head
If we could find a way to decelerate
Cause lately I just haven't been thinking straight

And it feels like I'm between alive and dead
Personal Chernobyl in my head
If we could find a way to decelerate
Cause lately I just haven't been thinking straight

Lately I've been thinking
Even though it hurts
Maybe you and me can make it work
