i said too much
you got hurt again
i can't control
the weight of words
and i feel like i'm drowning
i'm sorry for what i said
this ain't a love
digging sprees
'til our roots are torn up
stay with me
and i might shape up
then again
i am bad
you listen well
letting me go
'til i trip on myself
and i should know
how to curb my tone
i am bad

i’m back inside my head again
hi, it’s been a while
i’m flipping through old messages
wondering how it’s turning out
how’s it turning out?
i’m trying to build a nest again
maybe this time i won’t leave
he left me on the bed again
i’ll be my own company
and i’m always trying
to hush up from the inside
but now i’m stuck indoors
and i miss the kind of quiet
that you love like
when you’re out of words
and i know it’s getting harder
in the down time
but outside it’s worse
listen to your walls come down
listen to your walls come down
i’m living with the mess again
(at least that’s the ideal)
i tried to clean up everything
now nothing’s real
and i’m always trying
to hush up from the inside
but now i’m stuck indoors
and i miss the kind of quiet
that you love like
when you’re out of words
and i know it’s getting harder
in the down time
but outside it’s worse
listen to your walls come down
listen to your walls come down

dans ma tête, il y a un lac de feu
dans ma tête, il y a un lac de feu
toute la joie d’enfance, ce n’est rien, enfin
j’ai trouvé dans l’histoire, un troue si grand
quand j’essaie de quitter le lac de feu,
mon bateau coule, mes rames brûlent,
je sens le gouffre
toute la joie d’enfance, ce n’est rien, enfin
j’ai trouvé dans mon coeur, des allumettes
dans ma tête, il reste un lac de feu
le lac de feu, le lac de feu

who are we to understand
what we're supposed to make of it
when it's not full, when it's not real yet
jumping ship 'cus you're the man
everyone is talking 'bout
when it's like 2am
and you're doing headstands
where did you go?
and how did you get there so fast
without saying goodbye?
i was bold
i chased and hunted you down
just a handful of times
if it was love, well maybe
i'll take it in stride
hints of what it could've been
but you were always much too scared
and i understand
but where did you go?
and how did you get there so fast
without saying goodbye?
i was bold
i chased and hunted you down
just a handful of times
if it was love, well maybe
i'll take it in stride
take it in stride

off in a daze, lost in a haze
my mind again
got to be sure i could love anymore
if i tried again
years spent alone
and i've finally started to like myself
so you're aware, i invite you
to share in my tenderness
heartstrings, you've done it again
this time, i don't see the end
casual hope that you might
indulge in my master plan
room to revise
but let's start with the eyes
and just linger there
heartstrings, you've done it again
this time, i don't see the end
you're an exceptional man
you're an exceptional man
heartstrings, you've done it again
this time, i don't see the end
