Lyrics

[Verse 1] It's so easy to set off The molecules and the caplets They all have something against me Nothing I do makes me feel different [Pre-Chorus 1] This one's like your sister's best friends In a bath callin' you to join them Can't avoid them This one's like your mother's arms When she was young and sunburned in the '80s It lasts forever [Verse 2] The more level they have me The more I cannot stand me I have helpless friendships And bad taste in liquids [Pre-Chorus 2] This one's like the wilderness Without the world, I'm gonna miss those long nights With the windows open I keep re-readin' the same lines Always up at 5am every mornin' Like a baby [Chorus] It's just the lights comin' on It's just the lights comin' on [Bridge] I have no positions No point of view or vision I'm just trying to stay in touch with Anything I'm still in touch with [Pre-Chorus 3] The sky is getting white I can't find a lighter anywhere, I'm goin' crazy But I'm not crazy Put your heels against the wall I swear you got a little bit taller since I saw you I'll still destroy you [Chorus] It's just the lights comin' on It's just the lights comin' on [Instrumental Outro]
