Ill-Advised - Waves

Walking alone
No holidays
Whiplash gauze
I'm back again
Sleeping alone
I need something safe
And you need
Someone else to blame
Angels atone
We fell from grace
My heart's a pedestal
You're a wrecking crane
If heaven's above
Then I don't wanna stay
But like a flightless dove
I can't escape
Touch me
I'm a thief among the pride
An outcast
But I don't play
Kiss me
I'm a vision come to life
These days
We make our own reality
I just wanna feel okay
But I cannot find a way
To keep my head
Above the waves
I forgive you
The curtains drawn
With a bottle at the bottom
I'd be remiss
To answer your call
You know what I want
They'll say
Oh what a shame
Only if we knew what to say
Such a tragedy
I can't believe
One more smile that will never be
Dying alone
No one was saved
Like a shipwrecked love
I've washed out to sea
Circling above
I'm the vultures' prey
Like a Judas clone
You're no friend to me
I just wanna feel okay
But I cannot find a way
To keep my head
Above the waves
Touch me
I'm a thief among the pride
An outcast
But I don't play
Kiss me
I'm a vision come to life
These days
We make our own reality
I just wanna feel okay
But I cannot find a way
To keep my head
Above the waves
Wrapped in a cold embrace
I made a mistake
A permanent impulsive choice
I took too much
Now I'm slipping away
Oh God, I want to stay
Waking alone
I'm not the same
A stardust buzz
Machines keep me awake
We once were in love
Now all I feel is pain
So I pack my bags
Ready to start again
I just wanna feel okay
But I cannot find a way
To keep my head
Above the waves
Touch me
I'm a thief among the pride
An outcast
But I don't play
Kiss me
I'm a vision come to life
These days
We make our own reality
I just wanna feel okay
But I cannot find a way
To keep my head
Above the waves
I just wanna feel okay
But I cannot find a way
To keep my head
Above the waves
