lyrics

the truth is, when we peel off our clothes and meet, you scare the shit out of me. maybe it's the tattoos, or that guy you still use or my ex who's fucked half the eastern seaboard since june.

some people live to watch the world burn, i live for you.

the truth is, if you slowed it down to think, you'd make sense out of me but i've made too many plans, got the ticket in hand. four months, three thousand miles, a mistake in a chance. the truth is, i'm the best and worst you'll be graced with and then again replaced. but when you smile, i die, when he calls, i know you lie and we laugh because if we didn't, we'd cry.

some people live to watch the world burn. i'm watching you.

the truth is, i lied so damn much to get where i am, where we were when we met. maybe it's just that. the stupid and subtle fact that when you say you're crazy it's just how you will act. but there's a truth in us. there's beauty in lust. there's nothing i'd rather have than you to wake up but it's a life you must lead and one i must leave; another thing i'll convince myself i don't need.

some people live to watch the world burn, so bright like the days' setting sun. some people live to watch the world burn. but i am not the one.
