Perfectly Dysfunctional

Yeah

We've been the train sided out and broken up
The body left to decompose beneath the brush
We've seen each other's blood, tasted the salt of one another's sweat
We've been each other's jail, we've been each other's escape
We've been each other's hell, we've been each other's heaven
When did this run off the rails? Where did we go wrong?

I can't just lie to you and claim not to crave dysfunction
I can't just lie to you and tell you I'm alright
I can't lie to myself and pretend that I just can't remember
'Cause I'm reminded every time I see the scars that dress my skin

Together we would lilt through a life shared
Though summary's an incipient nightmare
More than some dalliance to leave two woebegone and torn
We rolled the dice and lost, so now we'll survive off the orts
Though of tragedy a beauteous mistake is often born

I can't just lie to you and claim not to crave dysfunction
I can't just lie to you and tell you I'm alright
I can't lie to myself and pretend that I just can't remember
'Cause I'm reminded every time I see the scars that dress my skin

Like a day's first breath
Like the smell of petrichor so fresh, it once left us
Wanting more, but now there's only the ashes of love notes to dirty the hearth
Like a day's first breath
Like the smell of petrichor so fresh, it once left us
Wanting more, but now there's only the ashes of love notes to dirty the hearth
Dirty the hearth

Hate built from fucking each other's lives up
Inured to a sinking ship still polishing the brass
For everything I may become, I'll forever credit you
Because no matter what, whether good or bad
It was together that we made it through
It was together that we made it through
