The Burbs by ANTHMS

Phantom pain again today
Twist the knife from miles away
Till there’s nothing left
Nothing left
I couldn’t wait to disappear
Swinging from the chandelier
Till there was nothing left
Nothing left
Forget my name
Keep all my stuff
Throw it away
We’re problematic
I fell into you like you were another bad habit
Another empty high

I’m caught in the quiet again
You and I are were a movie
And I already knew how it’d end
It ends, it ends.

You were giving me up in every way
I was hanging on to every word you’d say
With less to hold every day
Drunk in the dark
Stumbling around
Looking for reasons why you’d still be down
To stay in the burbs drowning out

Breathing fast and walking slow
Dressed up with nowhere to go
I know
The look you’re giving tells me that you’re
Out for blood and over it
Shut the door and call it quits
That’s it
I can’t believe it’s happening again
My name resembles a curse
A kiss of death
A final breath
A route that can’t be reversed

You were giving me up in every way
I was hanging on to every word you’d say
With less to hold every day
Drunk in the dark
Stumbling around
Looking for reasons why you’d still be down
To stay in the burbs drowning out

It was September
When I buckled at the knees
It’s been a year but
I’m can’t get back up on my feet
And I don’t want to miss you
But it isn’t up to me
It isn’t up to me.

You were giving me up in every way
I was hanging on to every word you’d say
With less to hold every day
Drunk in the dark
Stumbling around
Looking for reasons why you’d still be down
To stay in the burbs drowning out
