lyrics

Buy your future in a cardboard box
Divide it into rooms with keys and locks
Flipping through the pages of your own life
Resting with your spine on the edge of a knife

My ears, they’re good
My hands, are wood
Don’t do, like they should

Could you really stop for a moment if you wanted to?
Do you have a moment you could spare, I think I need some air
Could you help me pull my nails out one by one

Do you really know the extent of your own wake?
Every sound, every word, every single song you make
Every ripple that you make can’t be undone

Framing yourself in a plastic case
A badge on your coat and a grin on your face
Testing the waters with a tentative stare
One for the test run and one as a spare

My ears, they’re good
My hands, are wood
Don’t do, like they should

(solo)
Every single one of all your plans are blue
I’d rather make my own if thats alright with you X3

Could you really stop for a moment if you wanted to?
Do you have a moment you could spare, I think I need some air
Could you help me pull my nails out one by one

Do you really know the extent of your own wake?
Every sound, every word, every single song you make
Every ripple that you make can’t be undone

Every single one of your plans are blue
Let me make my own if thats alright with you X3
