Death Wish

Lyrics for Death Wish

Alright, "Death Wish" My love, you love your time machine Your power trips and diamond rings The walls you built on teenage dreams The well you dug for sinkin' things Your words to kills are evergreen So you must not feel anything at all (whoo) But how'd you get so bulletproof? You trade your time for inside truth Trade your time for any clue Of what to do or not to do Hate to say, it's nothing new Aside from those few girls you keep around But how will it end? How long will you give me 'Til you twist the knife with a smile while you kill me? And you ask me to dance if there's someone around You don't look the same when I look at you now Well, honey pie, you're haunting me I fell for your faux fantasy You poured the wine, there's poison in it Disregard my disposition Truth is in the subtle things Your eggshell floor is splintering now, mm And it freaks me out I'm old enough To know you as a gateway drug You're everything I'll never be You live to look for enemies I have to bet that's lonely Could leave you with an empty house But how will it end? How long will you give me 'Til you twist the knife with a smile while you kill me? Then you ask me to dance if there's someone around You don't look the same when I look at you now And I used to pretend that it didn't feel evil Your light of a million suns burns through people And bridges and cities 'til ash covers ground A breath of your air is a death wish And you're forcin' my hand, but I'm a drop in your ocean I ruined your plans of some grand self-promotion The second you figured that I figured you out Now you look away when I look at you now Oh, look at you now Well, look at you Look at you
