Lyrics

[00:30.68] It's tough to stay objective, baby
[00:35.46] With your tongue abseiling down my neck
[00:39.49] It's a bulletproof offer and I can't accept
[00:49.45] It's tough to maintain focus, baby
[00:54.15] Now all my elephants are in the room
[00:58.55] We crave the fiction, when we need the truth
[01:02.59] You need to find a different boy's heart
[01:06.49] To chew
[01:16.28] All these emoticons and words
[01:21.16] Try to make it better but they only make it worse
[01:27.65] It's tough to feign indifference baby
[01:32.29] Now I'm spending all the money I have
[01:36.49] Trying to impress you is kinda driving me mad
[01:45.28] I don't blame the pressure or the vultures in the sky
[01:49.96] I blame what happens every time we're under neon lights
[01:55.38] We crave attention in a room with a view
[01:59.43] You need to find a different boy's heart
[02:03.09] To chew
[02:12.83] All these emoticons and words
[02:17.98] Try to make it better but they only make it worse
[02:32.03] And all these emoticons and words
[02:36.87] Fail to make it better their attempts just make it worse
[02:45.09] And it's everything that I want
[02:49.24] And nothing I can keep
[02:54.41] Behind these metaphors
[02:58.66] I want you literally
[03:01.90] We crave the fiction when we need the truth
[03:05.49] You need to find a different boy's heart to chew
[03:19.46] All these emoticons and words
[03:24.11] Try to make it better but they only make it worse
[03:49.95] But I like it here so much I might stay
[03:54.44] The air to nowhere's such a beautiful place
[03:59.18] The air to nowhere's such a beautiful place
