lyrics

I'm in love with the lightning machine
Fantasies feel so real to me
I know
It'll make the show
And all in all I'm sick again
And I can't breathe
Can't go outside today
I'm trapped in my head
Believed the lies they said
And once again won't communicate
Don't you dare cry
My haunted mind
May leave me behind
(Unless there's something secret here)
And oh,
Don't you dare try
You're staring at the walls
(Where the ghosts almost always appear
Up here...)

Did you ever want to talk about it
Did you ever want to hold my body down
On the dirty ground
In love, in love, in love
Did you ever want to choke my shout
Did you ever want to slit my stupid throat
Watch me bleed out
In love, in love, in love

Be a man, be a man be a man, oh

Take it from me, baby
You don't want to bow down
Peer pressure, babe
Do what you need to do
Listen to them, boy and
They'll add your skull to their thrones
Only listen to you

I'm in love with the lightning machine
I know
I'm trapped in my head
And I can't breathe
Can't go outside today
I'm trapped in my head

And oh,
Don't you dare cry
My haunted mind
May leave me behind
(Unless there's something secret here)
And oh,
Don't you dare try
You're staring at the walls
(Where the ghosts almost always appear
Up here...)

Did you ever want to talk about it
Did you ever want to hold my body down
On the dirty ground
In love, in love, in love
Did you ever want to choke my shout
Did you ever want to slit my stupid throat
Watch me bleed out
In love, in love, in love
