Glitches

Album: Low Teens (2016)

  • So long to young love I've anchored my heart
    Farewell to small joys I've burned down the bar
    I'm changing my name so I don't do no harm
    Some say it's vanity, some say it's charm

    No levels, still the same old devils

    Frightened of fear, a servant of time
    Kidnapped the queen, I have angered the hive
    Snuffed out the stars with celestial winds
    Ended a cycle that started again
    I stopped going out, they kept coming in
    Was I saving my soul or saving my skin?

    No levels, still the same old devils

    Can't hold it close, can't let it go
    Prisons in basements in slick model homes

    I'm just a day-tripper on sacred terrain
    My transformation went from mangled to tame
    I don't feel different but I don't feel the same
    I'm afloat with an ear to the ground
    I built a fortress with some books and a phrase
    I felt some heat so I came out of the haze
    I saw the end and I was truly afraid
    I have begged but I'm still not allowed

    It's a trap, lay the bait, catch the rat
    It's a trap, lay the bait, catch the rat

    Flew home and left the unknown in the lurch
    Kept finding bodies, I called off the search
    Went to a hymn from a funeral dirge
    Church in the hospital, dog in the church

    No levels, still the same old devils

    Shepherd me back, this time I know
    I don't know nothing, I'm not in control

    Mindful but gutless
    Mindful but gutless
    Mindful but gutless
    Mindful but gutless

    There's no need to panic
    No need to panic Writer/s: DANIEL TRAVIS DAVISON, JOHN ANDREW WILLIAMS, JORDAN TAYLOR BUCKLEY, MICHAEL KEITH BUCKLEY, STEPHEN E. MICCICHE
