lifeline

(album: things with wings - 2022)

I guess halfway is the only way to meet me
Dinner for five but I guess everybody's leaving
I don't mean to be deceiving

But it's like every single time I try to walk in a straight line
I end up falling right back in the place where I waste time
I run in circles, I keep skipping the baseline
Hey, hey, hey!

You could be my
Lifeline and I ain't getting my soul back
Spend all my money on cigarettes and cognac
Sharp turns, to spinning out, we off track
C'est la vie, turn the old me to a throwback

You could be my
Lifeline and I ain't getting my soul back
Spend all my money on cigarettes and cognac
Sharp turns, to spinning out, we off track
C'est la vie, turn the old me to a throwback

C'est la vie, turn the old me to a throwback
C'est la vie, turn the old me to a throwback

I guess you found yourself a person that could do it better
'Cause I was always stuck on bullshit we could do together
You can hide behind your lies but please don't think you're clever
You used to drag me by my feet but now our ties are severed

So you must like control, huh?
You told your parents that LA's getting you sober?
Been three months and you still crash on the sofa?
I'm finally knocking this old chip off my shoulder

You could be my
Lifeline and I ain't getting my soul back
Spend all my money on cigarettes and cognac
Sharp turns, to spinning out, we off track
C'est la vie, turn the old me to a throwback

Lifeline and I ain't getting my soul back
Spend all my money on cigarettes and cognac
Sharp turns, to spinning out, we off track
C'est la vie, turn the old me to a throwback

C'est la vie, turn the old me to a throwback
C'est la vie, turn the old me to a throwback

(Lifeline and I ain't getting my soul back
Spend all my money on cigarettes and cognac
Sharp turns, to spinning out, we off track
C'est la vie, turn the old me to a throwback)
