My Brain
You look at me and smile
Lean in and kiss me when you say goodbye
You listen when I talk
And look into my eyes with your hands around my throat
Those same hands
That pull me close and sure I understand
That this is but a game
We're just having fun well, tell that to my brain
I think of you and smile
A simple feeling I had forgotten for a while
And everywhere I look
Are signals I've learned to read just like a book
And I don't care
How close we get I'm supposed to know better
Than this
What's your excuse for everything we'd miss?
And oh, I
Have been down this road before
And I know now
There's only two ways this could go for you and I
We either fall or we bleed out
Bleed out
I thought I was so smart
Until you placed my hand upon your heart
And that's when it begins
That rushin' feeling from my brain down to my skin
And I should fear
That loneliness if you ran and disappeared
But then you come so near
I forget and it all becomes clear
That oh, I
Have been down this road before
And I know now
There's only two ways this could go for you and I
We either fall or we bleed out
We either fall or we bleed out
Bleed out
Lean in and kiss me when you say goodbye
You listen when I talk
And look into my eyes with your hands around my throat
Those same hands
That pull me close and sure I understand
That this is but a game
We're just having fun well, tell that to my brain
I think of you and smile
A simple feeling I had forgotten for a while
And everywhere I look
Are signals I've learned to read just like a book
And I don't care
How close we get I'm supposed to know better
Than this
What's your excuse for everything we'd miss?
And oh, I
Have been down this road before
And I know now
There's only two ways this could go for you and I
We either fall or we bleed out
Bleed out
I thought I was so smart
Until you placed my hand upon your heart
And that's when it begins
That rushin' feeling from my brain down to my skin
And I should fear
That loneliness if you ran and disappeared
But then you come so near
I forget and it all becomes clear
That oh, I
Have been down this road before
And I know now
There's only two ways this could go for you and I
We either fall or we bleed out
We either fall or we bleed out
Bleed out
