lyrics

"this must be it"

endless steps to horizon lines
I reached the edge, but kept my stride
and tried to stand on the point focus
I lost it all and I almost didn’t notice
but I had to let it steam..
I am a lipid lid..
no one thinks that I get angry!
no one ever thinks of me..
when you look up
you can’t look down
to see you’re walking
on unknown ground
she talked me in, I talked her out
she taught you sin & showed you how
the apple taste so sweet
you could have it all
but I swear
it just makes you hungry
when you’ve never known you could starve
but would you live
a tiny life to die a tiny death?
oh, would you make
yourself so small
you’d fit in anything at all?

my skin was worn ’til it was thin
then it was torn twice, and again
can’t let you go inside the ruse
so I spoke two doors for you to choose
well it’s been so dark, the lies so light
my heart is so heavy, you think me spitting spite
I am no thorn stuck in her paw
all you see is the base of a pawn
I just forbade the fruit
saw the hunger in your eyes
oh I butchered my bed!
shit this schism when I said
“I don’t want you around here no more!”
would you live a tiny life
to die a tiny death?
oh, would you make yourself so small
you’d fit in anything?

love is so easy to fake
when no one knows what the fuck it is
again and again I’ll think “this must be it”
and excuse all of your fucking shit
love is so easy to fake
because you don’t know what the fuck it is
again, again, you think “this must be it”
but there’s no way it’d start like this
love is not a fucking choice
but it can be a simple trick
and I have promised that this is all it is
so don’t you think “this must be it”
love is not a fucking choice
we’re far too young for it to have this much worth
no matter how far I see through your eyes
there's no way I’ll ever think your choice is right
love is so easy to fake
when none of us no what it is
again, again I’ll think “this must be it”
and excuse all of your fucking shit
there’s no way that this is it
there’s no way that this is it
no way that this is it
no way it’d start like this
no way that this is it
no way it’d start like this
no way that this is it
no way it’d start like this
no way that this is it
