[Verse 1]

What I wouldn't give just to forget

Or turn another key in the engine

Getting on my feet then I fall again, again

Turn another cheek in the morning

Here we go again


[Pre-Chorus]

I guess I'm painting over it, uh

These cabin walls are fever red


[Chorus]

Stayin' too long, holding on, it's a slow goodbye

Ache that'll never leave

Filling the holes but it grows, yeah, it grows in size

Takes over like a weed

Looking for closure in company

All of my friends have their own spare key

Waiting alone, good as gold, swallowing my pride

Paying the price of autonomy

It's on me


[Verse 2]

Light a cigarette to ignore you (Oh-oh)

Now I do what I want when I want to

Nobody but me to go on to

(Uh-uh, uh) And you know how I get when it falls through


[Pre-Chorus]

I guess I'm painting over it, uh

These cabin walls are fever red


[Chorus]

Stayin' too long, holding on, it's a slow goodbye

Ache that'll never leave

Filling the holes but it grows, yeah, it grows in size

Takes over like a weed

Looking for closure in company

All of my friends have their own spare key (Key)

Waiting alone, good as gold, swallowing my pride

Paying the price of autonomy

It's on me
