Eyes in the dark like switchblades drawn waiting for the slip, wanting me gone Front-row vultures getting restless now praying for a break they can talk about Room goes quiet when the heels hit slow All that hunger hanging from a single note Whole lotta faith in a funeral scene Shame I don’t fall where they hoped I’d bleed Let them watch Let them bet Whole room frozen on a held breath Someone out there holding that breath hoping I fold, putting bets on the wreck Keep that chest tight, don’t breathe yet I get better under pressure, watch the effect Someone out there starving for the sight Waiting for the spark to die under the knife Keep that breath locked, blue at the lips came to see a failure? Suffocate on this Doubt looks good from a spectator’s seat Champagne poured for a planned defeat Burial grin with the glasses raised already celebrating days too late I know that look, yeah, I know that stare built a whole religion around my despair Need my collapse so their world makes sense need me beneath what I represent Let them wait Let them bet Whole room frozen on a held breath Someone out there holding that breath hoping I fold, putting bets on the wreck Keep that chest tight, don’t breathe yet I get better under pressure, watch the effect Someone out there starving for the sight Waiting for the spark to die under the knife Keep that breath locked, blue at the lips Came to see a failure? Suffocate on this. Save the prayers Save the script Built me a coffin? Climb inside of it Keep watching Hold it in. Held that breath too long Live or die with it Someone out there holding that breath still putting everything down on the wreck Keep that chest tight, don’t breathe yet I make pressure look effortless Someone out there begging for the sight Waiting for the wrong move all damn night Keep that breath locked, blue at the lips Came to see a failure? Suffocate on this.
