Death Wish (Live from The O2 Arena)

Alright, Death Wish

My love, you love your time machine, your power trips, and diamond rings

The walls you built on teenage dreams, the well you dug for sinking things

Your words to kill are evergreen, so you must not feel anything at all

But how'd you get so bulletproof? You trade your time for inside truths

Trade your time for any clue of what to do or not to do

Hate to say it's nothing new, aside from those few girls you keep around

But how will it end? How long will you give me

Till you twist the knife with a smile while you kill me?

And you ask me to dance if there's someone around

You don't look the same when I look at you now

Well, honey pie, you're haunting me, I fell for your faux fantasy

You poured the wine, there's poison in it, disregard my disposition

Truth is in the subtle things, your eggshell floor is splintering now

And it freaks me out, I'm old enough to know you as a gateway drug

You're everything I'll never be, you live to look for enemies

I have to bet that's lonely, could leave you with an empty house

But how will it end? How long will you give me

Till you twist the knife with a smile while you kill me?

Then you ask me to dance if there's someone around

You don't look the same when I look at you now

And I used to pretend that it didn't feel evil

Your light of a million suns burns through people

And bridges and cities till ash covers ground

A breath of your air is a death wish

And you're forcing my hand, but I'm a drop in your ocean

I ruined your plans of some grand self-promotion

The second you figured that I figured you out

Now you look away when I look at you now

Well, look at you now

Well, look at you

Look at you
