"Congratulations On The New Set Of Speechless"

"Congratulations On The New Set Of Speechless"

this winter has felt like a year-long deathwish.
i've been keeping it together, swimming higher than the big fish.
feeling the sun on my back is a relief, see,
it lets me know the surface is closer than it appears to be.
i've spent my winter dreaming.
wishing, praying, screaming
maybe ive gotten to run, since you've seen me crawl.
see you next summer, since ive already seen you fall.

lets play pretend,
a game that you cant lose
to you i will portend,
have you heard the news?
its people like yourself, that ruine the sunset.
because of these words, you'll break a nervous sweat.
am i a threat? ;)

i'd like to let you know,
its forever or bust.
set your expetations aglow,
in the dark, they will rust.
if you wont fake it, have no fear.
if you dont make it this time, there's always next year.
forget about me, im long gone.
but if you insist, i'll race you to dawn.

lets play pretend,
a game that you cant lose
to you i will portend,
have you heard the news?
its people like yourself, that ruine the sunset.
because of these words, you'll break a nervous sweat.
am i a threat? ;)

step once, step twice, dont fall UP the stairs.
find someone new, to meddle with your affairs.
an angel? a lie!
satan in a tie!
so lets start this descent.
for my heart, is perfectly content.
dont fret, i'll keep it on the low.
since you dont want everyone to know-
the mistakes already held against you.
the vision i have is of a differnt hue.

lets play pretend,
a game that you cant lose
to you i will portend,
have you heard the news?
its people like yourself, that ruine the sunset.
because of these words, you'll break a nervous sweat.
am i a threat? ;)
