Gauze - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

Memorise your exits, memorise all the scenes

Because after curtain call, they're closing on all of your dreams

Keep an empty hand and keep your conscience clean

Ensure that either side of you is an empty seat

But you've been burying yourself from the world

And you've been fighting yourself through it all

You've been killing yourself when you fall

When you fall away

I know you're tired of asking for help

But it needs to be said. So I'll say it

I know you're tired of asking for help

And I know you're tired of hurting yourself

Don't believe in union. Don't believe in a god

Don't believe any words you hear in a song (woah)

Don't compare to others, respect what they achieve

Believe in yourself and all of your hopes and your dreams

So I'll say it

I know you're tired of asking for help

And I know you're tired of hurting yourself

I know you're hiding inside of yourself

You think you're too far gone

So you just soak right through your gauze

Let it in. Let it soak right through

It's your breakthrough and I'm so proud

I know you're tired of asking for help

And I know you're tired of hurting yourself

I know you're hiding inside of yourself

(But you've been burying yourself from the world

And you've been fighting yourself through it all.)

And I know, And I know [?]

(You've been killing yourself when you fall

But you've been burying yourself from the world.)

I know you're tired of hurting yourself

(You think you're too far gone

So you just soak right through your gauze.)
