Always On Lyrics by DBMK

Collapse

2016

[Verse 1]
I'm excavating words but only digging up dirt and the letters that my head screams
Spending gas money, it's aching up through my tummy and I love it that she calls me

Talking through my vision and empty wallets been missing because I'm not good looking for sure
I said I'm working on my self and past the point of my shell where this body's got me going for

It's easy if you try without a reason to lie, misunderstanding what my eyes do
Do they still see me with reason? Do they believe it?
Always asking what am I to you

[Chorus]
Cause' I'm
Going through the motions
Of your real life notions
And I'm always, always on
I'm getting good at feeling wrong
And you're loving to look at him
You're telling me you won't give in
But I'm always, always on
I'm getting good at feeling wrong

[Verse 2]
Plotted in the smiles of every kid past the mile and the silence that we hear about
Passively aggressive torn about being messy and the girls that talk so loud
Counting thunderstorms, understanding the norms, listen hard to what my words do
My tongue is always livid, my poetry is frigid, but my words don't mean a thing to you

[Chorus]
Cause' I'm
Going through the motions
Of your real life notions
And I'm always, always on
I'm getting good at feeling wrong
And you're loving to look at him
You're telling me you won't give in
But I'm always, always on
I'm getting good at feeling wrong

[Bridge]
I'm burning but I want a warm body next to mine
I'm sinking to the bottom weighed down by my flawed design
I'm burning but I want a warm body next to mine
I'm sinking to the bottom weighed down by my flawed design
I'm burning but I want a warm body next to mine
I'm sinking to the bottom weighed down by my flawed design

[Chorus]
I'm going through the motions
Of your real life notions
And I'm always, always on
I'm getting good at feeling wrong
And you're loving to look at him
You're telling me you won't give in
But I'm always, always on
I'm getting good at feeling wrong
