We wanted success
Until nothing was enough
Until my middle name was excess
Somehow I lost touch
When you went out of sight
When you got lost into the city
Got lost into the night
I was in need of help
Heading to blackout
Till someone told me "run on in honey
Before somebody blows your goddamn brains out"
You shoplifted as a child
I had a model's smile
You carried all my hopes
Until something broke inside
But now
We float
Take life as it comes
We float
Take life as it comes
So will we die of shock?
Die without a trial?
Die on Good Friday?
While holding each other tight
This is kind of about you
This is kind of about me
We just kinda lost our way
We were looking to be free
But one day
We'll float
Take life as it comes
We'll float
Take life as it comes
But one day
We'll float
Take life as it comes
We wanted to find love We wanted success Until nothing was enough Until my middle name was excess Somehow I lost touch When you went out of sight When you got lost into the city Got lost into the night I was in need of help Heading to blackout Till someone told me "run on in honey Before somebody blows your goddamn brains out" You shoplifted as a child I had a model's smile You carried all my hopes Until something broke inside But now We float Take life as it comes We float Take life as it comes So will we die of shock? Die without a trial? Die on Good Friday? While holding each other tight This is kind of about you This is kind of about me We just kinda lost our way We were looking to be free But one day We'll float Take life as it comes We'll float Take life as it comes But one day We'll float Take life as it comes Explain Request ×
