Consumption

Verse 1 2:07, kitchen light doing that cruel little glow Good glass, cheap wine, I still toast like I know Your jacket on my chair like it pays rent Phone face-down and still winning the argument I don’t want a reason I want a next Pre-Chorus I don’t want the party I just can’t do the quiet Silence wears your perfume and I hate that I buy it Chorus Consumption look what I did again Swore I wanted quiet then I let the whole world in Consumption the sweetest way to disappear I put the night in my mouth and I call it a year Take it, take it, take it I was gonna leave it Verse 2 Rooftop in July, a laugh I borrowed for the picture Good dress like a witness I can hide a life in I strike a match for the warmth, not the fire Leave a pretty ruin and call it desire You were never the hunger you were just convenient light Pre-Chorus I don’t want the party I just can’t do the quiet Chorus Consumption look what I did again Swore I wanted quiet then I let the whole world in Consumption the sweetest way to disappear I put the night in my mouth and I call it a year Take it, take it, take it I was gonna leave it Bridge I could blame the wine, the city, the beautiful men I could make the night a villain in a velvet coat But I leave the lights on purpose I pay for rooms I never sleep in I’m not in love with pleasure I’m in love with missing that second where it’s just me and I have to mean it Final Chorus Consumption look what I did again Swore I wanted quiet then I let the whole world in Consumption the sweetest way to disappear I put the night in my mouth and I call it a year Outro Take it, take it, take it I was gonna leave it If the room goes quiet don’t you dare fill it
