Lyrics Matthew And The Atlas – Pyres

Look at my mind, I’m feelin’ like a drugger
Don’t hit me like it used to do
I’m burnin’ like a coal thrown down in the ocean
Runnin’ out of time when I look at you

I’m hangin’ by a thread, just tryna remember
All the things you said that you needed to do
I’m breakin’ like a wave strung out on the water
Holdin’ onto everything that I can
You still to pull me through

I never really wanted you to know
It’s not like I was just another darkened door
Holdin’ onto somethin’ that I never had
I never really wanted you to know
It’s not like I was just another darkened door
Holdin’ onto somethin’ that I never had

I’m tired of the same emotion
Just hummin’ like a bad line on the wire
I’m driftin’ on a wave of cold illusion
It’s all that I can do when on the funeral pyre

You could’ve been a ?
The city light burns as you walk on by
It’s burnin’ like a cigarette out of the ashes
Hangin’ on a breeze, I see them break
Towards the sky

I never really wanted you to know
It’s not like I was just another darkened door
Holdin’ onto somethin’ that I never had
I never really wanted you to know
It’s not like I was just another darkened door
Holdin’ onto somethin’ that I never had

I’m hangin’ by a thread, just tryna remember
All the things you said that you needed to do
I’m lookin’ like a wave strung out on the water
Holdin’ onto everything that I can use to pull me through

I never really wanted you to know
It’s not like I was just another darkened door
Holdin’ onto somethin’ that I never had
I never really wanted you to know
It’s not like I was just another darkened door
Holdin’ onto somethin’ that I never had

I never really wanted you to know
It’s not like I was just another darkened door
Holdin’ onto somethin’ that I never had
I never really wanted you to know
It’s not like I was just another darkened door
Holdin’ onto somethin’ that I never had
