Delayed Reaction Lyrics

Cut ties blew up my life, I ran away

And I'm still brushing the ashes from my suitcase

Oh all my clothes are the same shade of gray

And I'm sick of it

Still in the thick of it

So I go out with a vengeance

You'd never know I'm doing my best impression

Of somebody who's fine it's almost impressive

How it's almost working

Ya its almost working

You were the best thing that I ever had to let go

So I kept running faster to keep it from killing me slow

Oh I think I kinda under-reacted

I got in the habit of acting like it never happened

Now I'm having

A delayed reaction

Put you carefully in boxes

All of my favorite parts in the back of the closet

I didn't want it out but I couldn't toss it

And now I'm just haunted

This whole house is haunted

You were the best thing that I ever had to let go

So I kept running faster to keep it from killing me slow

Oh I think I kinda under-reacted

I got in the habit of acting like it never happened

Now I'm having

A delayed reaction

If I don't watch the end of the movie

Then I'm not the villain who ended it cruelly

And left like you weren't everything to me

Hope you know that you were everything to me

If I don't watch the end of the movie

Then I won't see all the future I'm losing

When I left like you weren't everything to me

Hope you know that you meant everything to me

You were the best thing that I ever had to let go

So I kept running faster to keep it from me killing me slow

Oh I think I kinda under-reacted

I got in the habit of acting like it never happened

Now I'm having

A delayed

Yeah I think I'm having

A delayed

Reaction
