Would you mind vacating the room
Could everyone please clear out
Not sure quite what I’m gonna do
But I don’t want you around
I’ve caused enough collateral damage
In countless months of anger and panic
I took your love and I took advantage
It’s time I take my own pain
Do you ever feel release is enough ever enough
Get it out get it out get it out of your system
Do you ever feel impeded by what you thought you loved
Get it out get it out get it out of your system
You can choose your catalyst
Both sides lose the battle wins
You can leave but just know where you’re going to run
Get it out get it out get it out of your system
Hear my feet against the sidewalk
Watch my breath against the cold and
Raise my fists against the night thoughts
Bloody knuckles fingers swollen
I obsess about the ends of things
Each night I lay awoken
Cus there’s pyrite in the promise ring
I promised you was golden
Do you ever feel release is enough ever enough
Get it out get it out get it out of your system
Do you ever feel impeded by what you thought you loved
Get it out get it out get it out of your system
You can choose your catalyst
Both sides lose the battle wins
You can leave but just know where you’re going to run
Get it out get it out get it out of your system
If my every single sin
Was a bottle in the ocean
Then unroll the scroll within
To reveal my pleas are hopeless
These messages won’t rescue me
Their bottles sit out lost at sea
Glass shatters in an effigy
If my every single sin
Was a mile in the ocean
Then I should be forced to swim
To the other side to show if
I’m sorry now or I repent
I’ll have to drown in my regret
So tie me down anchors of lead
