Flatline

(album: Why Am I Like This? - 2019)

We stand in long lines waiting for a ticket
To see paradise for just one minute
I thought I saw you walk away
I thought I knew you well

Stay on your good side, say what you want to hear
Bend over backwards and shut up until I disappear
You'd never change for anyone
God I'm so envious

And I give my love, but it's not enough
Now this feels like a waste of time
And you fall from a height, oh we both could die
Oh, what did you have in mind

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, oh
I chase the landslide to keep you on my side
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, oh
Now I'm holding a flatline to make you feel alive
To make you feel alive

I pay a high price, I give myself away
But you never think twice, do you ever do the same
And in the half-light we were glorious
But I crumble every time

And I give my love, but it's not enough
Now this feels like a waste of time
And you fall from a height, oh we both could die
Oh, what did you have in mind

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, oh
I chase the landslide to keep you on my side
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, oh
Now I'm holding a flatline to make you feel alive
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, oh
I chase the landslide to keep you on my side
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, oh
Now I'm holding a flatline to make you feel alive
To make you feel alive

I've been waking up in the dead of night, still holding on to a flatline
And I'm waking up in the dead of night, still holding on, holding on
And I'm waking up in the dead of night, still holding on to a flatline
And I'm waking up in the dead of night, still holding on

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, oh
I chase the landslide to keep you on my side
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, oh
Now I'm holding a flatline to make you feel alive
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, oh
I chase the landslide to keep you on my side
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, oh
Now I'm holding a flatline to make you feel alive
To make you feel alive
