lyrics

White shoes, dirty coats
Hanging out with the ghost boys
Got me hearing those voices
Don't like those noises
Christmas trees
Get rid of my bumblebees
And nothing really gets to me
Like seeing her smiling at me

Air force, sleeping goats
Got those urges to destroy
Got me hearing all those voices
Plug my nose, choices
Stick with me
Walking on my bare feet
And everything will be okay
As long as you stay beside me

Thinkin' up a daydream
You always say the same things
Arms are crossed, I'm through with this
What's been up with you lately?
Always say the same things
You always say the same things
I'm through with it, I'm over it
I need a break, I'll take it easy
(de-de-de-CORE!)

White shoes, dirty coats
Hanging out with the ghost boys
Got me hearing those voices
Don't like those noises
Christmas trees
Get rid of my bumblebees
And nothing really gets to me
Like see-e-e-e-eeee

I hope you know that
I'm not crazy
Check the wound
Are you oka-a-ay?
I'm on the lookout, looking
Every single other way
Gotta say it's nice to be a
Friend for you, but some days
When you lash out
Leaving all of us behind
What do you have to sa-a-ay?

Hurdle over hurdle, I'm
Sick of all the wordplay
You're messing up left and right
Like every single other way
It's every single other day
Why don't you say it to my fa-a-ace?
Ghost boys don't just float away
It's always just a mistake

(Always just a mistake)
(-a-a-ake)
(Ghost boys don't just float away)
(It's always just a mistake)
