Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I am sorry this is always how it goes
The wind blows loudest when you got your eyes closed
But I never changed a single color that I breathe
So you could have tried to take a closer look at me
[Verse 2]
I am tired of punching in the wind
I am tired of letting it all in
And I should eat you up and spit you right out
I should not care but I don't know how
[Verse 3]
So I take off my face
'Cause it reminds me how it all went wrong
And I pulled out my tongue
'Cause it reminds me how it all went wrong
[Verse 4]
I am sorry for the trouble, I suppose
My blood runs red but my body feels so cold
I guess I could swim for days in the salty sea
But in the end the waves will discolor me
[Verse 5]
So I take off my face
'Cause it reminds me how it all went wrong
And I pulled out my tongue
'Cause it reminds me how it all went wrong
[Verse 6]
And I cough up my lungs
'Cause they remind me how it all went wrong
But I live in my heart
'Cause I don't want to stay in the dark
[Verse 7]
So I take off my face
'Cause it reminds me how it all went wrong
And I pulled out my tongue
'Cause it reminds me how it all went wrong
[Verse 8]
And I cough up my lungs
'Cause they remind me how it all went wrong
But I live in my heart
'Cause I don't want to stay in the dark
