broken record - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

This is a sunny sky, this is a starry night

This is an afternoon I'll spend inside your arms, held tight

This is a question mark, this is a final thought

This is a happy ending snuck into the epilogue

This is a separate building, this is the journey there

This is the scenic route, this is your messy hair

This is a promise kept, an honored lesson, taught it to you

Through the monumental light alive inside your armor suit, and

This is the reason I've been shaking when I speak

Always terribly afraid to make mistakes and make you leave

It's a shame I'm scared of heights, 'cause when you sweep me off my feet

I can feel the ground beneath me start to sink into the sea

I can feel the clouds above me coming closer to my touch

I can almost taste the Heavens, but compared to you it's much

The same as everything else, another book on a shelf

It's just too hard to explain, so I'm repeating myself, like

This is a broken record, this is a broken record

This is a broken record, you'll always know me better

This is a broken record, this is a broken record

This is a broken record, so I'll be yours forever

This is the celebration, this is the party hat

This is the cellophane in which my heart is wrapped

And I'm peeling it back, 'cause I've been feeling the love

This is absolute bliss, this can fit like a glove

This is peace on the Earth, this is me, what it's worth

I'm not completely sure, but, still this-

This here's the final draft, this is an epitaph

For every negative emotion on a separate path and

This is the safest feeling ever to be felt

It's a message in the morning that intends to make you melt

And honestly, it's my magnum opus, this is a storybook

Where all the illustrations have a super-friendly look

A cordial shook hand at an important event

With stainless steel silverware and a porcelain dish

It's the weight of the pull inside of a torrent of fish

A metaphor used precisely to make it more than it is

This is a broken record, this is a broken record

This is a broken record, you'll always know me better

This is a broken record, this is a broken record

This is a broken record, so I'll be yours forever

This is a broken record, this is a broken record

This is a broken record, you'll always know me better

This is a broken record, this is a broken record

This is a broken record, so I'll be yours forever
