[Chorus]
Take me away from this place
Another mistake, another habit to break
Take me to a place far away
I just want to escape; I just want to get away
You're like the ultimate hit of ecstasy
But serotonin syndrome when you're next to me
I'm transmitting all of my neuroses
Like I was trying to spread my mind's disease
It's so easy to act like you don't matter to me
Cuz I wouldn't want to fool you into belief
Cuz maybe I know you're too good for me
And maybe there are better places you could be
My mind is made up of these little delusions
While my body is battered with these contusions
But a girl like you could leave me in ruins
Which is why I try not to seem so pursuant
So where do we go from here? I don't know
You can be just as cold as the falling snow
I tried to plant these seeds so they could grow
But you're uprooting these trees with each and every “hello”
You're a permanent fixture in this cavity my heart calls home
I'm quoting Donnie Darko like I'd really like to die alone
I'm not picking up the phone when you call
Just so you can demean the self-esteem I've worked so hard to recall
You drown your sorrows in alcohol
But that's not cute at all
I know I'm setting myself up for a fall
But I will hit the ground running like nothing happened at all
[Chorus]
And I'll never leave this room you can call it my tomb
I'm embalmed in the ashes of our love's sick swoon
You k**ed the feeling like a shot of alcohol could
I keep wondering if I can leave cuz I know I should
Where are you in all of this sick, fake propriety?
Thirty lines into this song and gaining infamy
I'm gaining momentum to feed the fire within me
Call me Prometheus cuz I'm chained to this for eternity
And so this ink bleeds on white sheets echoing grief
I take hearts like a repo man, call me Remy
But I'm more like Otto Maddox with suicidal tendencies
A love like this will be the end of me
You've got me addicted like you were force-feeding dopamine
And I'm terribly afflicted by your stolen angels wings
All this worrying has turned into a cancer within me
My prison cells develop and multiply the more I think
You wanted peace of mind? Here's piece of mine
I've got plenty enough to go around this time
I was just a lonely ghost uttering a truth no one would listen to
But you're crazy if you think all I'll do is miss you
I'd really hate to be the guy that calls you out on what you do
But you're a parasite s**ing life out of self-inflicted wounds
And now I'm composing a tune
It goes well with the awkward silence living in this room
You realized your mistake and came running back to me
But too little, too late because the beast is now awake
The truth is I'm a catch so losing me is your mistake
My heart is no longer for the breaking you fake
And you cry that you need me, well it's too late
Crocodile tears don't fix the reindeer games you played
And now you're on your knees begging me please
I bet you're used to that position you vapid sleaze
[Chorus]
Take me away from this place
Another mistake, another habit to break
Take me to a place far away
I just want to escape; I just need to get away
