It happened again, I'm all blocked up
Off with my head, someone cut me off
Death steps in almost like a friend
A silent killer exits calmly in the end
I never told him, I never told her so
Stay awake tonight, promises and pedestals
Set this place on fire when the rains forgot to show
Blood covers these hands, lies rise from my throat
Burning up now, or maybe I'm too cold
Medicine to mend some, but music cures the soul
I never told him, I never told her so
Stay awake tonight, promises and pedestals
I never told him, I never told her so
Stay awake tonight, promises and pedestals
Sharpened sticks like swords, jagged words in stone
It all breaks down the same, on the go, alone
Feathers on my back into serpent scales
Reality or fairy tales
All of my demons and all of the things that I want
Dreams tied to seams of my loose pieces falling apart
All of the battles that haunt and harass my heart
Path traced with shadows from a past I can't outrun
I never told him, I never told her so
Stay awake tonight, promises and pedestals
I never told him, I never told her so
Stay awake tonight, promises and pedestals
I never told him, I never told him, I never told him
I never told her, never told her, never told her so
Stay awake, stay awake, stay awake tonight
Promises and pedestals
