Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I got holes in my bones
And I have bees in the depths of my lungs
They want the honey
Now every molecule's stung
All my regrets start to trickle down
But they stain on the tip of my tongue
You took the money
You took the money and ran
[Verse 2]
But you could have made it right this time
And you should have made it right, there's still time
[Verse 3]
But you will stay the same as you always have
Make some look good and all the others look bad
You'll be the best friend I never had
Yeah, this is how you chose to walk away
Yeah, this is how you leave
[Verse 4]
I've lost control, and I
Just need my songs to be sung
Take the fucking money, take the fucking money
Take the fucking money and run
[Verse 5]
But you could have made it right this time
And you should have made it right, there's still time
[Verse 6]
But you will stay the same as you always have
Make some look good and all the others look bad
You'll be the best friend I never had
Yeah, this is how you chose to break away
Yeah, this is why you're always so opaque
Yeah, this is how you leave
[Verse 7]
These walls are closing in
These walls are closing in
These walls are closing in
These walls are closing in
These walls are closing in
These walls are closing in
These walls are closing in
These walls are closing in
These walls are closing in
These walls are closing in
These walls are closing in
These walls are closing in
[Verse 8]
You take the money, you take the money and have fun
