traitoR Lyrics by brakence
(You already won, see, like)
Stealth
Before you know it, there’s wrinkles on your face
And by the time you take a bow, the strings will start to fray
Before you know it, you’re sinking in your grave
Don’t worry where it brings you ’cause the worry burns the day
You were right
Stayed up all night ’til the morning
I was lost, and forgot what I missed you for
When I found you, it seemed like forever
I couldn’t walk with one foot out the door
Why did I stay where I was safe as I could be?
Got away, I let ’em take what we found
After all, I’m only fucking around
Hold me down, you can’t pay no amount
I’m a traitor ’til you’re setting me free
‘Cause it’s just out of touch, when I wanted too much
And though it’s getting harder to sleep
Why would I stay where I’m as safe as I can be?
As I can be
Never safe
I was running, I was horrified
Only you can take me to that place
With the weight I bear, tell ’em all, “Take care”
You can test my luck, let the blood run clear
No heavy hands have ever caught anything as far as I can see
Why are you doing this for me?
When you’re gone, I would never keep a title
I start off the ledge I’m on
Ask, “Are you there?” when you scream right back
I can’t tell you that, I can’t tell you that, no
Got away, I let ’em take what we found
After all, I’m only fucking around
Hold me down, you can’t pay no amount
I’m a traitor ’til you’re setting me free
And it’s just out of touch, when I wanted too much
It’s such a fascinating disease
Why would I stay where I’m as safe as I can be?
As I can be
(Why would I ever stay?)
(Why would I ever stay?)
(Why would I stay?)
(Everybody’s right)
