lyrics

the wind cuts through the heat
and you've given me the good seat
to see if we can work things out while i try on a new name
cause every time you text i keep coming around
but every time we talk you keep closing your mouth
i'm tired of trying new fixes and feeling the same

basking in the glow of the meaning i've found
staring at the ceiling overthinking out loud
and running my brain through the fire and the fury
of the winter we built all the walls coming down
moving on and burying the past in our bodies
'cause you already know all the worst things about me
we can stay in one place to keep things from changing
but it's all brand new it's all bad news

and i don't want to risk losing you
but a little growing apart will do us some good
staring at the sun coming off the bridge
while i'm holding my breath on the balcony's edge
cause i don't feel the need to fill up space
and i don't want to spoil the mood

but these vertigo high rise spins got me dizzy
while i'm tearin down the moon that chased you out of the city
and cutting my hand on the rusted remains
of the summer we built out of metal and memory
holding on to anything that keeps us together
but nothing's gonna change if we wait out the weather
we can learn to let go after you're feeling better
but it's all too much it's all too much

this can't end until i start
to shed my skin, remake my brain and unfuck my heart

it's all too much, it's all too much, it's all too much, it's all too much
it's all too much, it's all too much, it's all too much, it's all too much
you've changed, i've changed
everything's changing
it's all brand new, it's all bad news

this can't end until i start
to shed my skin, remake my brain and unfuck my heart
