Exit Strategy

Sometimes I’m only talking to myself
Yeah I know you’re getting worried for my health
Leave it
I’m just a solitary soul
Sick of these pleasantries
All right
You can watch as I dissolve
But when I wake
I want you here to have to hold
You’re so tired of these
Drama queen tendencies
So I face my pretty tragedies
I contrive, survive
Little battles in my mind
Yeah I make my exit strategy
I deny, I don’t try, I don’t try
You say there’s nothing to fight
Ohoh but sometimes
All I can do is scream fire! fire! fire!
Squealing and wolfbiting
I’m tearing skin got to push all the good back in
And so I face my pretty tragedies
I contrive, survive
Little battles in my mind
Yeah I make my exit strategy
I deny, I don’t try, I don’t try
Blood and treasure
I love, I lose
Delivering
The blackest bruise
Saving face
Let’s beat retreat
Withdrawal doesn’t mean defeat
