Lyrics
My mind is empty, my wallet is too
I wonder what it takes to get me higher anymore?
I feel as if I have the permanent flu
When is this season gonna seal its angry door?
My fingers ache for what they cannot hold
My mouth is frozen but my lips are frozen
Sometimes I don't care if I'll make it or won't
Beyond this moment where you're letting me go
*You say you're gonna leave me
'Cause I'm too ambitious
I guess I was ambitious to believe in love?
You prayed for me to change in almost every way
What were you waiting for-
Another girl to make you sure?
Remember times where we'd lie on our backs?
Searching the ceiling for imaginary planets
You always said I was a little naïve
You always seemed to have a reason not to breathe
You said I gave you what you needed
To hold your arms open when hope was frozen
But now I don't care if I'll make it or won't
Beyond this moment where you're letting me go
*You say you're gonna leave me
'Cause I'm too ambitious
I guess I was ambitious to believe in love?
You prayed for me to change in almost every way
What were you waiting for-
Another girl to make you sure?
G-d knows the answers to all my stupid questions
And if I studied more I'd have some too
But I can't help but wonder what it is you're after
I hope you find your sky before it swallows you!
