lyrics

I spend my time trying to fix me
And trying to not fall apart again
Top of my game
Up on the stage
With blind eyes
Don't tell me I can make it
If you know it's a lie

Hold me tight and never let me go
Your hands around my throat
Just keep me in a chokehold

A quick six seconds of love you'll never give
I'm plagiarising this
I can't think for myself no more
I can't think for myself no more

My time has been wasted
Following the wrong path
Don't trust the white rabbit
He leads you away but never takes you back
Don't trip up backwards, your skull might crack
Nobody wants that

What's so wrong with falling off the pedestal?
Everything you built it for
Is running down your leg
I'll crash at 23 with the golden years behind me

Grit my teeth
I don't mean to deceive
There's nothing up my sleeve
My magician is clean

Is this the only way back to the castle?
The throne is gone
Is this the only way back to the castle?
Admit my faults

I thought that I was king of it all
If only just a little bit
If only just a little bit
If only just a little bit
If only just a little bit
I was king of it all
