Throw Me To the Single Wolves

Somethings are a slow burn Somethings fade slowly overtime Somethings burst like a repressed volcano And somethings drag the match across the skin Until a map of our intrusive thoughts are written Pressing my luck like an iron Late nights staring at the ceiling Yelling to myself in my head "Don't lose focus, Don't fool yourself You've pieced everything together so far, rationally Don't lose yourself in the storm of misguided missiles If you don't want to be the target, Then stop making yourself the enemy" Late night conversations help me realize what’s false justification and what’s true But I dread the feeling of waking up And remembering everything I’m going through Could I ever make it up to you? A mistake that holds the power of a modern military arsenal With the unpredictability of a bubbling volcano Could I ever even make it up to you? You’re unpredictable but that’s what I love about you I never know what you’re gonna say But I love that about you Let’s stand together and throw rocks into volcanos I’m already playing with fire so it might as well be real I’m already poking the bear so this might as well be safer Hold my hand and we’ll throw our chances into volcanos I’m already tempting fate so it might as well be known I’ll let sleeping dogs lie When the lie becomes a sleeping dog She said "Don't lose focus, Don't fool yourself You've pieced everything together so far, coherently Don't lose yourself in the storm of misguided missiles If you don't want to be the target, Then stop making yourself the enemy" I can’t unhear it but I don’t know what to make of it But you’re so unpredictable and that’s something I love about you Could I ever even make this up to you? A burning match across my skin, I owe it to you A burning map etched in my skin, A subtle, not so subtle clue You’re unpredictable but that’s what I love about you
