lyrics

I entangle my obsessions with themselves
An intangible knot
For some future version of me to unravel
And I'm sure I'll miss the point entirely

I don't like to feel like I've lost control
I don't like the thought of letting anything go
But when I find myself a heart of ice
And squeeze tight
I know I'm only gonna melt it

These are the deluded ravings
Of a man in thrall
I am an open book so loosely bound
That the pages leave a trail behind me
As they fall

And so I offer only
Take what you want from me
And I still fear the day
That your love walks away

I never intend to make
A mess of things that comfort me
I never believe
That I could fuck it up so expertly
But I'm still the same guy
That I was the last time
When I crossed the wrong line
Made a choice to define
My self-esteem upon a lie

I don't like it looking like I look back at all
I don't like to think the things I think about
Are impossible
But it's always something
Never leads to nothing
Never becomes what I had in mind
But maybe that's alright

These are the warnings
I should have given myself months ago
The holes in the plot
That I could never reconcile
Nor rationalize
As though they meant anything at all

Just be patient with me
Ease my anxieties
So I won't be afraid
When your love walks away

May you have everything that you need
May your dreams become reality
Be authentic, sophisticated
Be elusive
Be elevated

Hard to say what's on your mind
So it's easier to lie
Maybe that's the bottom line

Crossed again and again
When do you stop this
When does it end
Enigmatic
Stay complicated
Unencumbered
Be liberated

Bind your hands to the wheel
And let nothing more
Slow you down
Give no warning
But be the storm on the sea

See yourself
Strong as I do
And let no man
Weaken you

Your existence
Makes something greater of me
You've the right to
Never speak apologies
Believe only
Nothing you do is in vain

Maybe that's the bottom line

Believe only
Nothing you do is in vain
Be forever
One who makes the tiger tame
