Burn In the Afterthought

Lyrics

I think you're interesting, but damn me interesting's
When everything I need is close and out of reach
I wish you'd pull me in, but I don't belong
Say you'll keep me waiting, not for long

And I can't even though I should
But I know I won't let go
'Cause I'm stuck living in the sparks
That we always talk don't own

Keep me on the tip of your tongue
With all the shit that I've done
Sick of us picking up the pieces

I'll burn in the afterthought
It's all I've got left to give in to (got left to give in to)
Yeah, it's all fucked up
'Cause it's not enough
No, it's not enough

I think you're interesting, but is it pulling teeth
When everything I need is close and out of reach
Was happy in my walls, found myself in yours
Along with someone else and now we hate ourselves

And I can't even though I should
But I know I won't let go
'Cause I'm stuck living in the sparks
That we always talk don't own

(I guess) I'll burn in the afterthought
It's all I've got left to give in to (got left to give in to)
Yeah, it's all fucked up
'Cause it's not enough
No, it's not enou-ahh-augh

Well, get what we've done
Without doing anything
How did we get this far
We're not going anywhere
Respite and wildfire
And we'll guide the water in
Floating in grace of the fall 'til I flat line

Keep me on the tip of your tongue
With all the shit that I've done
Sick of us picking up the pieces

I'll burn in the afterthought
It's all I've got left to give in to (got left to give in to)
Yeah, it's all fucked up
'Cause it's not enough
No, it's not enough

(Burn in the afterthought)
Keep me on the tip of your tongue
(Burn in the afterthought)
Take me with the shit that I've done
(Burn in the afterthought)
It's all I've got left to give in to

(Burn in the afterthought)
What's left to give in to
(Burn in the afterthought)
What's left to give in to
I guess I'll burn in the afterthought
It's all I've got left to give in to
