​safeword

Jumping out of a second-story window
Are you limited to that?
Living life on the inside
You’ve brought a dull blade to a gunfight

Coping well, you’re coping well
And are you doing this all to yourself?
Coping well, are you coping well?
Or am I just enough for a cheap night?

So say the safe word
Tell me when to stop and I’ll save everything
Misplaced and abused
Slept in your clothes again

Falling apart, falling apart for this
Intoxicate me
There’s no love left in this house
(No love left in this house)

Tell me how to love
Tell me how to live
These bedsheets move on their own
With a sorry look to your face
Torn up misused lipstick stained

Secret space just left unseen
Share with another
Castaway dream
Secrets lied half untold
Try to ask if I’m okay
(I’m not coping well)

So say the safe word
Tell me when to stop and I’ll save everything
Misplaced and abused
Slept in your clothes again

Falling apart, falling apart for this
Intoxicate me
There’s no love left in this house
(No love left in this house)

Crawling through infinity
Plastic perfection
Fall in front of me
Double X sign off
On a letter you wish you wrote
No arrogant fake charade
No steady stranglehold
