v: phone in my hand so i dont think about it/
sleep in the middle of the bed to keep it warm and/
I'm going to work cause i still gotta pay rent/
my body is heavy/
dont think I can do this for long
v: none of my friends go to church and I'm tired/
all of these songs out the muck and the mire/
how bad will it get if I cut the red wire/
its a slow burn but its still counts as fire/
c: how long will it take/
till my bootstraps break and I cant pull myself up again/
and how long will I fear and always be here/
in the place I've always been
v: please hold my hand but keep me at arms length/
theres only so much I can take when you hold me/
yeah it kills the mood when you feel like youre choking/
I've been here before and its not you/
I swear that its me/
and I swear that I'm sorry

v: heart in my hand I'm poised to drop it/
a dry-eyed weeping prophet
hanging by a prayer to let me let go/
let me let go/
v: lazarus how could you sleep at a time like this/
dont feel the same but oh I get it/
hanging by my guilt/
let me let go/
v: no man's and island/
I'm a landlocked city/
need something deeper than an hour on sunday/
I've made a home at the end of my rope/
let me let go
