lyrics

I’m not myself, feel less than anything
And what we have is not what it seems
We are the vices waiting for the virtues
We’re not kings, we are not kings

Gotta get out before my heart explodes
Gotta get out before my heart explodes
Gotta get out before my heart explodes
Gotta get out before my heart explodes
Gotta get out before my heart explodes
Gotta get out before my heart explodes
Gotta get out before my heart explodes
Gotta get out before my heart explodes

We are the lost, waiting for the sun
The beautiful things that we have done
I can feel the rough edge of your tongue
I’m on my knees, I’m on my knees

Gotta get out before my heart explodes
Gotta get out before my heart explodes
Gotta get out before my heart explodes
Gotta get out before my heart explodes
Gotta get out before my heart explodes
Gotta get out before my heart explodes
Gotta get out before my heart explodes
Gotta get out before my heart explodes

Everybody wants you to be somebody else
Everybody wants you to be somebody else

If I could draw a diagram of our love
Then I would want a different kind of buzz
There’s not enough love to weigh us down
But it’s all I’ve got, it’s all I’ve got

Gotta get out before my heart explodes
Gotta get out before my heart explodes
Gotta get out before my heart explodes
Gotta get out before my heart explodes
Gotta get out before my heart explodes
Gotta get out before my heart explodes
Gotta get out before my heart explodes
Gotta get out before my heart explodes
I crave a different kind of
I crave a different kind of
I crave a different kind of
I crave a different kind of
Everybody wants you to be somebody else
Everybody wants you to be somebody else
