Can you feel that?
Ah, shit
Oh, ah, ah, ah, ah
Oh, ah, ah, ah, ah
oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Drowning deep in my sea of loathing
Broken your servant I kneel
(Will you give in to me?)
It seems what’s left of my human side
Is slowly changing in me
(Will you give in to me?)
Looking at my own reflection
When suddenly it changes
Violently it changes (oh no)
There is no turning back now
You’ve woken up the demon in me
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Open up your hate, and let it flow into me
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
You mother get up come on get down with the sickness
You fucker get up come on get down with the sickness
Madness is the gift, that has been given…
‘Cause we’ve been driving so long
I can’t remember how we got here
Or how we survived so long
I’m tryna run from our pride
‘Til you set fire to my atmosphere
And I remember how I spent the 23rd
Feeling six feet under
When I’m 30,000 feet in the air
Chasing that sundown
So far east I’m westbound
Feeling like the edge of this world is near
But you’ll feel better when you wake up
Swear to god I’ll make up
Everything and more when I get back someday
This is more than just a phase, love
Shooting stars all break up
And even though it seems like half the world away
Things will be better in America
Heard the streets are gold there
Maybe I could fly you out this place someday
Chasing dreams like I’m on Novocain
Screaming through your airways
Looking back I almost thought I heard you say
Stay, you’re not gonna leave me
This place is right where you need to be
And why your words gotta mean so much to them
And they mean nothing to me
So stay, you’re not what you’re hearing
‘Cause I’ve been watching you changing
And who said you’re one in a million
Anyway?
‘Cause you see only what you want to
Your tunnel vision haunts you
And you can’t see what’s wrong
When you keep sleeping through the PM
Eyes wide open when you’re dreaming
You’re sleepwalking, just keep talking
And maybe you can talk your way out of this deep end
No “B” plan in your system
Just tell me what you’re thinking
I’m scared that you might fall
But you’re not [2x]
And you’ll feel better when you wake up
Taking off your makeup
Sun always seems to wash our fears away
And it’s always shining somewhere
I just gotta get there
And even though it seems like half the world away
Things are better in America
Heard the streets are gold there
Maybe I could fly you out this place someday
Chasing dreams like I’m on Novocain
Screaming through your airways
Looking back I almost thought I heard you say,
“Stay, you’re not gonna leave me.
This place is right where you need to be.
And why your words gotta mean so much to them
When they mean nothing to me?
So stay, you’re not what you’re hearing
‘Cause I’ve been watching you changing.
And who said you’re one in a million?”
You’re so much better than that [3x]
Stay, you’re not what you’re hearing
‘Cause I’ve been watching you changing
And who said you’re one in a million anyway?
And you’ll feel better when you wake up
Swear to god I’ll make up
Everything or more when I get back someday
Chasing dreams like I’m on Novocain
Screaming through your airways
Looking back I almost thought I heard you say
as i dive in without my wings
at the speed of light i’m flying to my end
as i fall without my wings
how i’m the last song the blackbird will sing
i’m free at last, free from you,
free from the past
freedom at last
what is life, other than a cage to me
i’m free at last, free from you
free from the past
freedom at last
what is life, other than a cage to me
blackbird,
oh, blackbird
blackbird
oh, blackbird
now i rise as the phoenix escapes from me
through the fire, through the flames
leaving ashes underneath
i’m free at last, free from you
free from the past
freedom at last
what is life, other than a cage to me
i’m free at last, free from you
free from the past
freedom at last
what is life, other than a cage to me
blackbird
oh blackbird
blackbird
sing one last song for me
yeah blackbird
oh black bird
sing one last song for me
Did you stand there all alone?
Oh I cannot explain what’s going down
I can see you standing next to me
In and out, somewhere else right now
You sigh, look away
I can see it clear as day
Close your eyes, so afraid
Hide behind that baby face
Do do do do do do
You can drive all night
Looking for the answers in the pouring rain
You wanna find peace of mind
Looking for the answer
Funny how it seems like yesterday
As I recall you were looking out of place
Gathered up your things and slipped away
No time at all I followed you into the hall
Cigarette daydream
You were only seventeen
Soft speak with a mean streak
Nearly brought me to my knees
Do do do do do do
You can drive all night
Looking for the answers in the pouring rain
You wanna find peace of mind
Looking for the answer
If we could find a reason, a reason to change
Looking for the answer
If you could find a reason, a reason to stay
Standing in the pouring rain
Do do do do do do…
You can drive all night
Looking for the answers in the pouring rain
You wanna find peace of mind
Looking for the answer
If we could find a reason, a reason to change
Looking for the answer
If you could find a reason, a reason to stay
Standing in the pouring rain
