lyrics

we fell asleep in Boston when we woke up in May
and I couldn’t stop watching waiting for the words to say
and I knew they’re no good for me
yeah I knew they’re no good for me
But Caroline she spiked it and I had like ten
the metaphors and alcohol were present in my head
and it seemed they were my beliefs
anchor things that I shouldn’t speak
no don’t breathe them in
no don’t breathe them in
introspective merit and the cops that only stared at you
brain cells collapsing and my hopes are all of scaring you
train me I’m a parrot I’ll do anything you ask me to
a sin a sigh a croon
a croon
I won’t get into the things that I said
just know that crooks and dirty looks can get to your head
and it seemed they were my beliefs
anchor things that led me to sink
no don’t breathe them in
no don’t breathe them in
no don’t breathe them in
no don’t breathe them in
