Filthy Habits

(album: Cavalcade - 2010)

Why won't everyone just forget about it?
I left a trail of blood with love, not violence
And I don't deserve anything you're providing
I am cold; leave me alone

I tiptoe corners these days, always hiding
My mind, it swallows whole every last distraction
And all that I'm left with are a million questions
Like, have you grown cold? Are you fucking miserable?

I just can't listen to sad songs anymore
I get fucking bored

Jealous of friendships that I can't abide by
(Jealous of these sinking ships)

Watch the water swallow all of us whole
This time, I swear it's over
Jump in with your lungs wide open
Haven't you heard? Cynics never recover

There are words that I can't even breathe
Those are the ones I've been dying to scream

Still jealous of friendships I can't abide by
(And we'll watch these sinking ships)

And the water swallow all of us whole
This time, I swear it's over
Jump in with your lungs wide open
Cynics never fucking recover

Spit on the stories you've been told
'Cause now you're so much older
It's clear you've forgotten all about this
I don't think I'll ever recover
