Played out for punchlines

All this downtime
Played out for punchlines
Played off as our time
In (the end will) fall otherwise

So unfamiliar
Must now rebuild words
Inside outside
Must now not hide

You can close your eyes
But don't fall asleep
Don't forget to breathe

I can explain
I can explain
I can explain
I can explain

Hurt is a trust fall
Hell keeps you in check
And hope is a muscle

I can explain
I can explain
I can explain
I can explain

In out of remission
Yet it never lets go
In and out of remission
Yet it never lets go
Go
Never lets go

The bastions of cutthroats
Call of the ..
So we ride through the dark of day
So we ride through the dark of day
