lyrics

Guilt shame and regret
Permission to bow my head
Straight from the hotel
It shouldn't have happened like that
Can I restore the order
Unfairly lauding the launderer

Special kind of stupid
When I do my wrongs on purpose
Probably shouldn't so I will
Is the motto of the weed but
Bad blood will out
No one's worried 'bout that
And to that end
I'm slashing for a blackout

But will I reform to be respected
Can I read books in my cell
And become a philosopher
I'll commit to change if I can see you again

Still I hold you
Still I haunt you

Still I hold you
Still I withdrew

I tried my best not to get hurt
And I'm sorry it worked and I'm sorry
Like a cat on the look for something warmer
Apologies are limp to the armor

(Blond hairs on the sheets they stop me)

I think what's happening here is that
Everyday I'm loving myself less
At the expense of another chance
And I agree with everyone else
There must be repentance
After breaking another covenant
Trust in this former launderer

Good Christians forgive
Standing here on a limb
Back when I didn't know loss
Was simply hopping across
Penny drops
Couldn't gain purchase
Penny drops
Couldn't crack purity

Resentment is the fool's estate
Clean slate was a broken plate
I think the victim is me
Truth boldness and honesty
I think the victim is me
Separate the thing from the thing

I'm sick of the chase
I'm sick of the chase
It was only a vase
Was only a vase
My natural form
I'm sick of the hunt
Release me or don't
Believe me I won't

Both the perpetrator and the martyr are poor
Both innocent ill-fated and connected by what
What
Be sure to use damnation very sparingly
And only on the crimes against humanity

Still I hold you
Still I haunt you

Still I hold you
Still I withdrew

I tried my best not to get hurt
And I'm sorry it worked and I'm sorry
Like a cat on the look for something warmer
Apologies are limp to the armor

(Black hairs on the sheets they stop me)

I think what's happening here is that
Everyday I'm loving myself less
At the expense of another chance
And I agree with everyone else
There must be repentance
After breaking another covenant
Where is this former launderer
After breaking another covenant
Where is this former launderer

So what's another cent to our sinking economy
So what's another cent to our sinking economy
So what's another cent to our sinking economy
