Kites
[Intro]
Fake friends waste my time
Hide behind tear stains and alibis
Arson nightly
Lighting fires
Burned our incense on the pyres
Sing the swan song with the choirs
Watching angels through the wires
Stand up in ashes
Flex your pride
Please don't stand so close to mine

[Chorus]
Love sick summer nights
Pass me under the bright lights
Chase me to my flight
Watch me reach new heights
Kites

[Verse]
Don't call me up
I won't pick up
We've said enough
I called your bluff
I saved myself, moved two floors up
My sneakers pound
My speakers up
Say what you want, It's just not love
I'm riding waves
I let them come to wash you away
Forget that I knew you
You'll ask me to stay
But I'll see right through you
The candle's burned out
There's smoke in the mirror
I'm drowning in doubt but seeing much clearer
[Chorus x2]

[Verse]
I miss the days back when we were savages
Just a wannabe and still looked at as average
I'm cool now
That didn't happen by accident
I used to be content
Now my swaggers got me ravenous
Flip on my jam and it'll bandage all your damages
Clip on the cam, friends around me had to laugh at it
I'm giving my all in to the first qualified candidate
Nobody can hurt or help it
I'll love you for your candor or your lack of it
I went to school for the apathetic, now I'm a graduate
Saw the way you moved, now I'm an advocate
Terrifying things come in very fine packages
I asked about your status and I heard you were a capulet
But I'm a pacifist
Let's take a figurative stab at this
Tell me you're down and I'll get your name on a laminate
It's okay if you're bent on being passionless
Okay
I'll call you a cab if you just admit you're bad at this

[Chorus x3]
