(“It’s all happening”)
Close the door behind you
On your way out
Lindsey’s been home for months trying to find herself
Just a yellow shade of gloom
She couldn’t bring to throw away
So they built a house around her room
And that’s where she’ll always stay
(She’ll always stay.)
Close the door behind you
Leave us no doubt
I’ve been working longer days hoping you might be found
Now that yellow shade of gloom
Has turned to darker shades of gray
I’m growing selfish in this city
And that’s where I’ll always stay
(I’ll always stay)
I can still remember
When she used to say
“Let’s run away to Morocco or Paris
We’ll spеak in transatlantic
And pretend that we’rе famous”
Close the door behind you
Nothings changed now
She’s used to floral pattern dresses from
Those hand me downs
And that yellow shade of gloom
Is now a distant memory
We felt so permanent together
But we knew we couldn’t stay
All those nights spent
Listening to our parents records
It meant everything
But you were too afraid to say
“Let’s run away to Morocco or Paris
We’ll speak in transatlantic
And pretend that we’re famous”
Can you see it all now?
We could all live together in
One big house
Not here, somewhere nice
Where the summer smiles all the time
And there’s no lies
We can pick up where we left off in a past life
“Let’s run away to Morocco or Paris
We’ll speak in transatlantic
And pretend that we’re famous”
Still you got to go already
But you just got here now
Close the door behind you
On your way out

I hear you’re going back to therapy
Taking pills to balance moods as a daily routine
All while reflecting on those old days
But youre still unsure if youre happy
Cause somewhere in between that walk from the Circa Survive concert
We stopped to talk in a retro 50s diner
You want a future that involved both of us
But how can I save you when I can’t even save myself?
(It’s ok to be here for the moment)
(It’s ok to be here)
I don’t blame you for the disconnеct
Or that birthday card you never sent
Evеntually we had to move on and mend
I never said that I was heaven sent
(It’s ok to be here for the moment)
(It’s ok to be here)
Oh my god
It happened again
I’m becoming a coward with a 9 month attention span
Maybe it’s all I am
(Maybe it’s all I am)
How can I save you, when I can’t even save myself?
(It’s ok to be here for the moment)
(It’s ok to be here)

I USED TO BE NORMAL

(I hope you know
This was all my fault after all
I hope you know
I used to be normal)
Curtains closed
To trap the dark inside my room
While I lay ontop a bed that
Ruins bodies while they sleep
I can feel it coming on
Staring at the ceiling
Place my hand against my chest
To slow down breathing
(I hope you know
This was all my fault after all
I hope you know
I used to be normal)
The drugs only make it worse
This sickness I created
Stems from a self hatred
Im at a party with my friends
And were drinking to forget
Maybe this is what they meant
When they said werе all born broken
(I hope you know
This was all my fault after all
I hopе you know
I used to be normal)
