Tourniquet

Think I might try to try to
Sail off the edge of the world
But I'll probably make one big great circle
The way that I always do

Yeah, sometimes you get so close to someone
You end up on the other side of them
I'm comforted, it's not the end
It's just a loop

Building collapse
Pressure outweighs the pain
I don't feel sad, I don't feel anything
Only will when the blood returns
But I'd rather be numb than know how bad I'm hurt
So I'll keep the tourniquet on

Take it back, shove it down
You can get a new car
But you can't forget the way it sounds
Or feels to crash, high speed impact
No policе, the first person I called was my dad

Now I'll walk mysеlf down the aisle
I'll be the parent and the least favourite only child
Laundry days, 2PM
Some people die before they're dead

Building collapse
Pressure outweighs the pain
I don't feel sad, I don't feel anything
Only will when the blood returns
But I'd rather be numb than know how bad I'm hurt

So I'll keep the tourniquet on
I'll block it out and off
'Cause I don't need anyone
I don't need anyone
I don't need anyone at all
If I keep the tourniquet on

I spend every night with the TV on
I can't bear to be alone with my own thoughts
Maybe we always start right back where we end
Don't know if I'm God, or if I'm sisyphus
Would my suffering be special then?
Monetizable, immortalised in myth
If there's no good thing or evil that people won't one day forget
Oh, I'll keep mine in the tourniquet

I'll keep the tourniquet on
I'll block it all out and off
'Cause I don't need anyone
I don't need anyone
I don't need anyone at all
If I keep the tourniquet on
