Lyrics:

What's the city look like from your new bedroom window?
Do you think you see your ex-lover driving by real slow?
Does it make you feel uneasy, does it tickle your ego?
Would you look at me and say it's really not that simple?


Well I turned on the TV

Saw my own face
From a hospital bed

Did you see me babe?
A morphine drip

And a demon to chase
But I still woke up with a spirit to break

 

I swallowed dad's pills

Took a knife to my arm girl
I just started digging

Til your eyes took me under
Woke up in an ambulance

Two towns over
Blowing kisses at Jesus

I came back for you girl

 

Well you turned off the TV

Saw your own face
From your lonely bed

Did you feel me babe?
A morphine drip

And a demon to chase
Did you still wake up with a spirit to break?
I'm coming up from so far under baby
I'm coming up

I'm on my way
Show me that you still have a spirit to break

 

When we were sixteen, you told me never change
Well here I am, baby, but I'm not the same

 

I'm coming up from so far under baby

 

Yeah I turned on the TV

Saw my own face
From a hospital bed

Did you see me babe?
A Morphine drip

And a demon to chase
But I still woke up with a spirit to break
I'm coming up from so far under baby
I'm coming up

I'm on my way
Show me that you still have a spirit to break
Show me that you still have a spirit to break
Show me that you still have a spirit to break
