"Landmines" lyrics

"Landmines"

I'm never gonna send the emptiness away
I'm tired of climbing up the walls
God, I need those chemicals
When I don't wanna feel it
No higher meaning when my bones begin to break
But if I turn myself to stone
Could I be better off alone?
I'd listen to my head but I'd be dead this time tomorrow

Like choking up the ocean
Don't set me off
'Cause I know myself
I'm close enough to broken
So come and cut me open
I could spend a lifetime skipping over landmines

I'm skipping over landmines

Still got a feeling there's a hell that I've erased
It's like the fire took it all
But I still won't take the call
'Cause I don't wanna hear it
Too busy thieving all the time that I'm awake
I'm on another episode
Where the good gets overthrown
And none of us believe it

Like choking up the ocean
Don't set me off
'Cause I know myself
I'm close enough to broken
So come and cut me open
I could spend a lifetime skipping over landmines
Building on a fault line
Walking into headlights
I'm skipping over landmines
Like everything is alright

Another couple strikes then I'm out
These punishments were made to measure
Drowning flowers in the depth of a drought
Doomed to repeat until the end of never

Like choking up the ocean
Don't set me off
'Cause I know myself
I'm close enough to broken
So come and cut me open
I could spend a lifetime skipping over landmines
Building on a fault line
Walking into headlights
I'm skipping over landmines
Like everything'll be alright
