powertrip Songtext
von fawn practice

We stayed up ′til Three
Watching the hours pass by, it gets harder to keep this up
But I'll tell you it′s fine
Let you believe things are different, just
Can't shake the thought that
I can't be what you want
But darling, those high expectations were wrong from the start
You don′t
Know who I am
And you never will
If I get my way you won′t set foot inside this town again


The waves swallowed the beach
We watched the days disappear
Wondering where our light had gone
So set fire to the street
To the old boxes shut tight
And the tape that I kept aside
I can't be what you want
But darling, your high expectations were
Wrong from the start
You don′t
Know who I am
And you never will
If I get my way we will burn down the banisters again

And in your eyes
Saw the ghosts swarming the ceiling and shutting the gates again
Not my place to inquire
But darling what did you expect
When my hands are still kept aside
I can't be what you want
But darling, your high expectations were wrong from the start
You don′t
Know who I am
And you never will
If I get my way we'll burn down the city again

Stayed in the car just so you would believe me
Fell over backwards and tried not to breathe in
Matchsticks and arteries float to the ceiling
Ghost in your holiness, fawn over nothing again
I just wish you would believe in me
I′ve been chasing every ghost I meet
I've been chasing every ghost I meet


Taped shut old boxes, an old friend forgotten
I want you to feel it so why can't you see it
Knives drawn, you held me, impossible feeling
To break out of stasis, no past left to trace

I don′t hate you
I don′t hate you, but
I just wish you could admit what you've done
I don′t hate you
I don't hate you, but
I just wish I had the guts to move on
