lyrics

I thought for sure
If we met up for drinks
I'd feel everything
I'd consume the sight of you
The past in a glass

But I know for sure
that I don't recognize your face
anymore
Were you always keeping face?

My stupid faith in your transcendent grace
Like sovereignty could ever be humane

How could you?
How could you make me believe
that in order for me to be free
I need more of you and less of me?
Where's your humanity?

You called me up
Just to remind me that you'd die
So I could live
And to nail me to a tree
of ignorance

You fucked me up
Put on that mask again so I
might understand
How you ever made me think
I owe you everything

How could you?
How could you make me believe
that in order for me to be free
I need more of you and less of me?

Is it really love if I can't feel it when I'm in it?
Where's your humanity?

How could you?
How could you make me believe
that in order for me to be free
I need more of you and less of me?

Where's your humanity?
