I Was (Dissertation) Lyrics

I'd rather fall in love

Than write this dissertation

Cause I'm not what I was

Wish I was creation

(I was I was)

I think I made a mess

In buildin other faces

And I can't keep it real

If I am uncomplacent

My relic's faded

No doubt I hate it

But I can't let it go

If I'm the one that's safe, yeah

And I haven't

Found much purpose to

Sit here and wonder…

Why?

And I haven't

Left the surface to

Wait here and wonder…

Why my paint fell at your feet

But now your brush is still with me

And now the splatter's on the street

You left my canvas so empty

How'd you expect to keep the peace?

New friends through fallen angel wings

(Weeping angels

Chasing halos

Where's your baby?

None left, maybe…)

(Weeping angels

Chasing halos

Where's your baby?

None left, lately)
