lyrics

i used to think i was scared of you leaving me
now i'm afraid you'll die here
stuck in the city, arms wider than buildings
you're grounded out of fear

and i'm in the north still looking for my body
knowing i'll probably die here
i have found fire, still looking for snow
always hoped that the end would be quieter

i think i used to believe in God
though i tried not to get my hopes up
i think he died last year
now i think we're alone here

i never believed in praying for nothing
now i pray all the time out of fear
call me a nihilist, i think i'm just tired
of what happens when all your friends are queer

this was the final album i needed to complete my collection of every black dresses album (and ep), and this one. this one is my new favorite. it's everything i love about black dresses, especially on WHEEL OF FORTUNE. crazy to think this is 5 years old, let alone released in the same month as my birthday. one million happy fans and friends forever <3 cyrus
