"Severance" lyrics

"Severance"

Hey, I forgot
Tripping into traffic, hypnotized by the northern lights
Dead end block
Static on the ceiling, I got sucked in
Hey, present tense
Slipping on the silence like a cloak made of rainy nights
Common sense
Barking out the order, I got sucked in
I don't know what I'm doing
The uncertainty is looming, every heart rents a lonely room
This fever is forever
I'm not ready when they sever you from me, it will be too soon

Hey, I forgot
Damage to the daughters and the sons who will never learn
If I get caught, promise me you'll run and you won't stop
Hey, digging it in
Cut me so I'll feel like a chance that I won't return
Digging it in
Hold me here forever, please don't stop

I don't know what I'm doing
The uncertainty is looming, every heart rents a lonely room
This fever is forever
I'm not ready when they sever you from me, it will be too soon

The shock slips in, the ship sails on
I curse myself and everyone
You will leave no name, you will leave no trace
Just a question mark, and an empty space

Yeah I forgot, hold me here forever and don't stop
Yeah, digging it in, tangle with yourself and you can't win
Yeah I forgot, hold me here forever and don't stop
Yeah, digging it in, tangle with yourself and you won't win
