So Long As We Keep Our Bodies Numb We're Safe Lyrics - Forget What You Know - Midtown

It's what you want 

It's your amphetamine 

Another night you're settling 

For comfort in your bed 

The more you fill 

The more you're empty 

You're never what you should be 

Here is why you're sad: 

You're miserable 

When he is close 

So take another drink 

Another drink will numb those senses 

And make the most of flesh and bones 

If it helps you to fall asleep 

I'm watching you change 

It doesn't have to be this way 

It gets harder everyday 

So you keep numb to feel safe 

Fuck what you know 

Can't you see it's shallow? 

Every time you swallow 

Do you get a taste of what you've become 

Regrets, they wake you in the morning 

You shower but you're not clean 

Please just listen 

You're miserable 

When he is close 

So take another drink 

Another drink will numb those senses 

And make the most of flesh and bones 

If it helps you fall asleep 

I'm watching you change 

It doesn't have to be this way 

It gets harder everyday 

So you keep numb to feel safe 

I still remember the days 

When you didn't feel the need to escape 

And every demon you never face 

Is the reason you're not safe 

Please understand that you've had every chance 

You've had all the time 

All the time in the world 

Please understand that you've had every chance 

You've had all the time 

All the time in the world 

You don't listen, you don't listen, you don't listen
