LYRICS:
Fiery eyes
I’m being awkward as hell
Still don’t know why
You’ve never known how it’s felt
To be so petrified
Being rained on by thoughts
The city lights are now thorns
You are a mystery
Ego ride
I do it just for the night
I try it
Ego ride
Lying through my teeth
Just to be by your side
For all the rightly
Splendid pretending wrong reasons
Ego ride
She sat on the park bench and told me her whole life
About her new hot boss
It’s way out of line
Or is just right under it
So close you can taste it
But then I open my eyes it’s just an
Ego ride
And I’m back to being in the back seat
Wanting another sip
It’s so typical of you to not reply like this
But my sister pulls me back
You are an explosive and tolling
taxing and controlling
an ego ride
She held me by my hand
And helped me sleep at night
She called by my name
But never called on time
I’m sorry I just left
I’m so thankful for my legs
i had to give up to start again
Ego ride
I tried not to fight it
Ego ride
and I know you didn’t buy it
Ego ride
I’m coming back to real life
Ego ride
