Lyrics

[Verse 1]
All these accidents that happen
Follow the dot
Coincidence makes sense
Only with you
You don't have to speak
I feel
[PreChorus]
Emotional landscapes
They puzzle me
The riddle gets solved
And you push me up to
[Chorus]
This state of emergency
How beautiful to be
State of emergency
Is where I want to be
[Verse 2]
All that no one sees
You see
What's inside of me
Every nerve that hurts
You heal
Deep inside of me, ooh-ooh
You don't have to speak
I feel
[PreChorus]
Emotional landscapes
They puzzle me, confuse
Can the riddle get solved?
And you push me up to
[Chorus]
This state of emergency
How beautiful to be
State of emergency
Is where I want to be
State of emergency
How beautiful to be
[PreChorus]
Emotional landscapes
They puzzle me
The riddle gets solved
And you push me up to
[Chorus]
This state of emergency
How beautiful to be
State of emergency
Is where I want to be
State of emergency
How beautiful to be
State of emergency
[Outro]
State of
State of
How beautiful
[Outro]
Emergency
Is where I want to be
State of emergency
How beautiful to be
State of emergency
Is where I want to be
State of emergency
How beautiful to be
