"Forgiving Spree" lyrics

"Forgiving Spree"

I wanted neon
But I got the streetlights
I wanted charming
But I got the snake bites

I wanted a clear path
I ended up kneeling
I wanted a blood moon
But I got the ceiling

I broke a mirror last year
I stepped under a ladder
Saw a black cat in my dreams
I opened my arms to every bad omen
That a fortune teller sees

God was giving me nothing
But I left a message on his answering machine
I won't forget this mess
Remember my face
It'll be the last one you ever see
On my forgiving spree

I got a chip on my shoulder
She found me but why
She offered me patience
She said give it time

I wanted it simple
She taught me to smile
She said it's the only, only, only
Way to survive

I broke a mirror last year
I stepped under a ladder
Saw a black cat in my dreams
I opened my arms to every bad omen
That a fortune teller sees

God was giving me nothing
But I left a message on his answering machine
I won't forget this mess
Remember my face
It'll be the last one you ever see
On my forgiving spree

Oh woah, on my forgiving spree
Oh woah, on my forgiving spree
Oh woah, on my forgiving spree

She said it's the only, only, only
Way to survive

I broke a mirror last year
I stepped under a ladder
Saw a black cat in my dreams
I opened my arms to every bad omen
That a fortune teller sees

God was giving me nothing
But I left a message on his answering machine
I won't forget this mess
Remember my face
It'll be the last one you ever see
On my forgiving spree

Oh woah, on my forgetting spree
Oh woah
