Lyrics

I am not awake
I am not asleep
I am not so shallow
I am not that deep
Do you wanna dance?
Someone shut the door
On the losing side
Of some sort of war
He said, "I'd like to do this for a living
But I don't know how"
Wild, uncommercial
Sleeping on a leash
There was a predestined set of symbols
Ticking into place, a prom queen crowned in the background
Stepping out of frame, a pair of hands took me to your face
Your eyes held me
Oh, compassion
It's transforming me into
Oh, compassion
It's transforming me into
No more reflection
Swearing all I see is you
Oh, compassion
It's transforming me into
Oh, compassion
It's transforming me into
Oh, compassion
It's transforming me into
I think I'm on to something
Oh, compassion
It's transforming me into
Shut up
Shut the fu-
Oh, compassion
It's transforming me into
Shut, shut up
Hey
