80MPH Lyrics by ​monikrr

CICADA*

2022

[Intro]
It was never meant to be semantics
Never-

[Verse 1]
Set fire to my home
It's in my throat, in my nose
Your eyes they burn in smoke
Try to wash it out with soap

Capsizing through the floor
Put your money where you swore
Breaking down the front door
To prove I'm anything more
Could I be more?

[Pre-Chorus]
So stop pulling me over
To tell me I could be something mor-

[Chorus]
Driving eighty through the calm
Feel the wind break on my palms
Florescent signs, without cause
The world feels so fucking small

Faster cars and faster falls
Scrеaming louder than it all
Thousand miles from the fault
But I'll always bе one call away (I'll be with you through it all)

[Verse 2]
They say money can't buy happiness
But I've been loving it
Post stupid edgy shit on Twitter
'Til they finally put me on a drug for it

We feel alive by killing ourselves
By pedaling fast and booking hotels
By mystery pills, exploiting our wealth
Girls and booze or whatever the hell

Used to lay back and find shapes in the clouds
Now this shit is shaping up what I am now
Stopped giving a fuck about what it's about
As soon as I'm eighteen, I'm outta this house

[Pre-Chorus]
So stop pulling me over
To tell me I could be something more

[Chorus]
Driving eighty through the calm
Feel the wind break on my palms
Florescent signs, without cause
The world feels so fucking small

Faster cars and faster falls
Screaming louder than it all
Thousand miles from the fault
But I'll always be one call away (I'll be with you through it all)

Driving eighty through the calm
Feel the wind break on my palms
Florescent signs, without cause
The world feels so fucking small

Faster cars and faster falls
Screaming louder than it all
Thousand miles from the fault
But I'll always be one call away (I'll be with you through it all)
