Lyrics
----------

[Verse 1]
White lines on the bathroom sink
Heartbeat louder than I can think
Hands shake
Jaw tight
Face in the mirror like we might fight
Red eyes
Cold tile
Friends in the hall tryna fake a smile

[Pre-Chorus]
I said "last time"
Back in July
Every promise just another lie
I hate this
But I chase this high
One more drag
Then I touch the sky

[Chorus]
Cut me up
Cut me open
I keep chasing what is broken
White lines
White lies
Tell me that I'm fine
Numb my tongue
Numb my feelings
I can't tell the floor from ceiling
I keep falling
Falling down that line

[Verse 2]
Cardboard taste on the back of my throat
Every bad idea wrapped in a rolled-up note
[low vocal register] Paranoid windows
Checking every sound
Then I’m back in the bag when it comes back down
Texting my dealer “one more ride”
Scratch marks running up my spine
Mom keeps calling
I decline
Say I’m busy
I’m just fried

[Pre-Chorus]
I said "last line"
Back in July
Every promise just another lie
I hate this
But I chase this high
One more hit
Then I touch the sky

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
[whispered vocals] I don't even like it anymore
Just scared of who I'd be walking out that door
[spoken] Sober with these thoughts
Sober with this skin
So I tear my throat and I dive back in

[crescendo]
I want out I want out I want out (let me out)
But my nose on the plate says shut your mouth

[Chorus]
