Midtown – So Long As We Keep Our Bodies Numb We're Safe lyrics
It's what you want
It's your amphetamine
Another night you're settling
For comfort in your bed
The more you fill
The more you're empty
You're never what you should be
Here is why you're sad
You're miserable
When he is close
So take another drink
Another drink will numb those senses
And make the most of flesh and bones
If it helps you to fall asleep
I'm watching you change
It doesn't have to be this way
It gets harder every day
So you keep numb to feel safe
Fuck what you know
Can't you see it's shallow
Every time you swallow
Do you get a taste of what you've become
Regrets that wake you in the morning
You shower but you're not clean
Please just listen
You're miserable
When he is close
So take another drink
Another drink will numb those senses
And make the most of flesh and bones
If it helps you fall asleep
I'm watching you change
It doesn't have to be this way
It gets harder every day
So you keep numb to feel safe
I still remember the days (still remember the days)
When you didn't feel the need to escape (every demon)
And every demon you never face (you don't face)
Is the reason you're not safe
Please understand that you've had every chance
You've had all the time
All the time in the world
Please understand that you've had every chance
You've had all the time
All the time in the world
You don't listen, you don't listen (listen)
You don't listen (all the time, time in the world)
You don't listen (all the time, you don't listen)
You don't listen (all the time, time in the world)
You don't listen (all the time, time in the world) (listen)
(39x)
All the time, all the time (you don't listen)
All the time in the world (you don't listen)
(24x)
All the time, all the time (all the time in the world)
All the time in the world (listen)
It's your amphetamine
Another night you're settling
For comfort in your bed
The more you fill
The more you're empty
You're never what you should be
Here is why you're sad
You're miserable
When he is close
So take another drink
Another drink will numb those senses
And make the most of flesh and bones
If it helps you to fall asleep
I'm watching you change
It doesn't have to be this way
It gets harder every day
So you keep numb to feel safe
Fuck what you know
Can't you see it's shallow
Every time you swallow
Do you get a taste of what you've become
Regrets that wake you in the morning
You shower but you're not clean
Please just listen
You're miserable
When he is close
So take another drink
Another drink will numb those senses
And make the most of flesh and bones
If it helps you fall asleep
I'm watching you change
It doesn't have to be this way
It gets harder every day
So you keep numb to feel safe
I still remember the days (still remember the days)
When you didn't feel the need to escape (every demon)
And every demon you never face (you don't face)
Is the reason you're not safe
Please understand that you've had every chance
You've had all the time
All the time in the world
Please understand that you've had every chance
You've had all the time
All the time in the world
You don't listen, you don't listen (listen)
You don't listen (all the time, time in the world)
You don't listen (all the time, you don't listen)
You don't listen (all the time, time in the world)
You don't listen (all the time, time in the world) (listen)
(39x)
All the time, all the time (you don't listen)
All the time in the world (you don't listen)
(24x)
All the time, all the time (all the time in the world)
All the time in the world (listen)
