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
Oh, oh, 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
