Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Demons on my neck, neck
Summer take a toll
Diamond in my eye shine bright on my soul
Girl's awful wet, slip, fall
Break the pain and the same anxiety's comin' up again
I been losing out on something
So I'm told by my friends
[Verse 2]
Runnin' in circles
Lookin' for something to hold on
Runnin' in circles
Knowing there's nowhere to go
And it's harder to be on your own
(So hard)
And it's hard when the night owns your soul
And it's harder to think on your own
And the summer is taking it all
It all
It all
It all
(Yeah, you're runnin' on my mind)
(I know you're runnin' on my mind)
(Runnin' on my mind)
(I promise you, you're runnin' on)
(Yeah, you're runnin' on my mind)
[Verse 3]
Demons on my neck, neck
Summer take a toll
Diamond in my eye shine bright on my soul
Girl's awful wet, slip, fall
Break the pain and the same anxiety's comin' up again
[Verse 4]
You and your soul are never not one
I said, you and your soul are never not one
Whoa, rise and shine
Rise and shine
'Cause you and your soul are never not one
Hold on, yes
You gonna be okay
You gonna be okay
Everybody go through it
Everybody goes through it
You're gonna be alright
Just hold onto your mighty way of being
[Verse 5]
Do, do
Yeah
Hahaha
[Verse 6]
Live for the floor
If I called you, would you answer me?
So you were, like, talking about this idea of being called upon
And like, for some reason, the first thing I heard was, like, this
Faint, irritating, incessant buzzer
And, I think I heard it three times in my life
The first was
Was within myself
Um, to stop pretending
To stop performing in ways that people wanted me to
To actually show up for myself and be myself
Live for the floor
