lyrics

Sleeping with the phone pressed up against your lips
Just to control it we need this morphine drip
But deep inside the drip you will find our lost intentions
Begging to break this silence we’ve been trying so desperately to grip

Check this out

Believe in me now
As you sleep and no one is around
It craves our imperfection and debility of mind, yeah
Believe in me now
How can I move on?
This ghost of Apollo lives still haunting me

Dreaming has left me but a fraction of a nights worth of sleep
At four or five when I arise I grab a pen, take a seat
So deep inside our heads where I have planned to pick apart
Hoping to find the resolution hiding here, this hollowness of ours

Ha! C’mon…

Believe in me now
As you sleep and no one is around
It craves our imperfection and debility of mind, yeah
Believe in me now
How can I move on?
This ghost of Apollo lives still haunting me

I’m a liar, yeah.
A goddamn good one when it comes to this
I’m a hider, yeah
I’ll do what it takes I will resist
I'm a liar, yeah
I'm goddamn good when it comes to this.
