Deadbolt & Ash

[Intro]
[Verse]
The floorboards are cold as stone
I’m tired of being alone
But you’re still outside the door
Like you’ve been here before
Sliding blue envelopes through the crack
Begging me to take you back
Your cursive is a crooked lie
I’m too exhausted to cry
[Pre-Chorus]
I see the ink begin to bleed
Every word is a desperate seed
But I’m not the garden you own
I’m the fire that’s finally grown
[Chorus]
Burn the pages, watch 'em curl
I’m not your quiet little girl
The smoke is heavy in the hall
I’m laughing as the ashes fall
Turn the deadbolt, hear it click
I’m tired of your magic trick
[Post-Chorus]
Deadbolt, deadbolt, click
Deadbolt, deadbolt, click
I’m sick, I’m sick, I’m sick
Of every little trick
[Verse]
You mention that night in June
Under a blood-orange moon
How you’re "changing for the best"
While you put my heart to the test
There’s a smudge on the word "sorry"
The same old tired story
I’ve got a lighter in my grip
Watching the yellow flame flip
[Pre-Chorus]
The fire alarm starts to scream
Waking me up from this dream
The smell of sulfur and regret
Is the best high I’ve had yet
[Chorus]
Burn the pages, watch 'em curl
I’m not your quiet little girl
The smoke is heavy in the hall
I’m laughing as the ashes fall
Turn the deadbolt, hear it click
I’m tired of your magic trick
[Bridge]
I don’t want your hollow grace
I don’t want to see your face
You’re a ghost in a rented space
I’m wiping out every trace
(Scream) I’m locking you out!
I’m shutting my mouth!
Everything is heading south!
Get your lies out of my mouth!
[Breakdown]
Fuzz on the strings
Hear how the Hammond sings
Shadows dancing on the wall
I’m waiting for the roof to fall
[Verse]
The wallpaper is peeling back
Everything is turning black
You said you’d be my "only one"
But look at what you’ve done
I’m cackling through the stinging salt
It isn’t even my fault
I’m watching the singed paper edges
Jumping off of the window ledges
[Chorus]
Burn the pages, watch 'em curl
I’m not your quiet little girl
The smoke is heavy in the hall
I’m laughing as the ashes fall
Turn the deadbolt, hear it click
I’m tired of your magic trick
[Post-Chorus]
Deadbolt, deadbolt, click
Deadbolt, deadbolt, click
I’m sick, I’m sick, I’m sick
Of every little trick
[Outro]
