lyrics

It always come down to this fire
I always break down to be the liar
These promises always go haywire
Butterflies always fill the entire
Why do I always push those away?
Those who I make promise to always stay?
I always get closest to the pain
With relating to myself, I am insane

I cannot move without feeling the rush of anticipation, endorphins swallow me whole

Always torn
All is burned (all is burned)
Always gone
All is harmed (all is harmed)
Always torn
All is burned (all is burned)
Always gone
All is harmed w(all is harmed)
Always
Always...

I always work so hard on these bridges
Then wish I could just rip them out like stitches
I always just want to save something
And when it gets too hard, I want to do nothing
How can I always be so naive?
I see myself in them and I just want to believe
I always forget how hard I fell down
And people, unlike me, they stayed around

I cannot move without feeling the sting of hypocrisy as I know that I am wrong

Always torn
All is burned (all is burned)
Always gone
All is harmed (all is harmed)
Always torn
All is burned (all is burned)
Always gone
All is harmed (all is harmed)
Always fond
All is wrong (all is wrong)
Always sweet
All is weak (all is weak)
Always smiles
All's defiled (all’s defiled)
Always love
All is nothing
All is nothing
All is nothing...

I repeat this over and over
I will make you my woeful lover
And shower you with words of comfort
I think I'm removing all the dirt
Then it blows up in your face
And then I change my entire pace
I'll go from taking the pain away
To running and adding more pain to stay

I cannot move without feeling the rush of anticipation, endorphins swallow me whole

Always torn
All is burned (all is burned)
Always gone
All is harmed (all is harmed)
Always torn
All is burned (all is burned)
Always gone
All is harmed (all is harmed)
Always fond
All is wrong (all is wrong)
Always sweet
All is weak (all is weak)
Always smiles
All's defiled (all’s defiled)
Always love
All is nothing
Always...
All is nothing
