Blister Lyrics

We outrun the shadows beneath our feet

Keep it up 'til we end up on some dead-end street

When we've turned into what we never wanted to be

When you've lost sight of what you once saw in me

Your lips are sour as I wipe away the sweat

And I force the words out of your throat, get them out of your head

Heavy breaths with every lift of your chest

We're fading away, but I'm already dead

And it's plain, these are just the rules of the game

You run around, you run me down, and I learn to chase

Insane, you and I are circling the drain

We're spinning round, we're doing down, and I'll surely be changed

We sink below the surface, heavy in our shoes

I give an arm and a leg for something that I didn't choose

It's never the right time to own up to the truth

That I know I'm better without you, but your face is an excuse

I sit in silence, try to untie all my knots

Blister my hands on the same rope acting like I forgot

You've got your vices too, but you've never been caught

You walk around, you puff your chest, act like someone you're not

And it's plain, these are just the rules of the game

You run around, you run me down, and I learn to chase

Insane, you and I are circling the drain

We're spinning round, we're doing down, and I'll surely be changed
