lyrics

Now that I'm here
I want to leave
cause i feel I've outstayed my welcome
I got what i wanted and the seas have parted
No I'm stuck here sucking on my thumb

Oh no
You were dead on arrival
Sometimes you don't know
What you've got till it's gone

Now that it's over
Wish I was still there
Maybe next time will be better

I've indulged so much
In what I believe to be
My only purpose

Oh no
You were dead on arrival
Sometimes you don't know
What you've got till it's gone

Looking for a shortcut
Cause it's taking too long
Time to get worked up
Cause everything is going wrong
You've clearly had enough
And you'll be crushed beneath the weight
Erased by events beyond what you want to know

The edge is getting near
Are you ready to fall off
You broke my fall with your heart
It can never be enough
