And I haven’t got acquainted yet to waking up in silence
No more than the rhythm of my heartbeat pulsing through my fingertips
It’s gotten so easy falling asleep to an existence so empty
And I’ve gotten so lazy trynna explain why I burned these bridges
Maybe if I close my eyes
It’ll change direction
If I forget about all the returned red lies
Then there’d be no code red
Can’tcha see the code red
Once again I talked myself into believing that I had you in the palm of my hand
Didn’t understand how somehow, I fell down
It’s gotten so unclear how so much has changed from when it first appeared
And by the end of the years, things’ll get worse from now in the atmosphere
Maybe if I close my eyes
It’ll change direction
If I forget about all the returned red lies
Then there’d be no code red
Can’tcha see the code red
I will rise from the ashes of the bridges I have burned
I survived & I carry all the lessons I have learned
So if the world ends & I lose what make me strong
I know that I still have the strength to carry on
Maybe if I close my eyes
It’ll change direction
If I forget about all the returned red lies
Then there’d be no code red
Can’tcha see the code red
