about

"Can you promise me this goes away/ Can you promise this will stop/ Or is this just my idle mind/ That you are the devil of"

lyrics

And sometimes light is dark
I can’t tell or pull them apart
I miss when art was art
And you had true free will to feel
To think or say anything
That you felt was real
Now it’s nothing but a paper trail
You gotta cover
Just take cover

Chorus: Can you promise me this goes away
Can you promise this will stop
Or is this just my idle mind
That you are the devil of

I keep pushing, I keep climbing
The harder I push the more alone I am
The recoil knocks me off
because failure was a shot I knew so well

Free will doesn’t matter when you’re too afraid to choose
Free will doesn’t get you higher when you’re too paralyzed to move
Free will doesn’t matter
When you’ve got nothing
Left to lose
I spend my time
Trying to detach
just like you
but you bait me to the noose
with your apocalyptic threats
To cut me loose
Chorus X2
