The Format - Holy Roller

 

I’d fake my death 
If it weren’t such a mess
For the people I love 
Or assume won’t forget me 
But I’m staying alive 
Just to see you roll your eyes
And sigh 

If you got nothing to prove 
Then tell me why would you do this? 

Holy Roller 
Don’t go wasting all your time 
Praying for a sign 
I’m burning out faster than a candle in the night 
I’ll be gone before sunrise 

Tell me again how you lost all your friends
Tell me when did it start 
And when will it end 
Cause I see no wrong if you were to tag along 

But don’t bother fixing your hair 
If you’ve got nothing to wear

Holy Roller
Don’t go wasting all your time 
Praying for a sign 
I’m burning out faster than a candle in the night 
I’ll be gone before sunrise

There is a debt that I never thought applied to me 
Until I got to your bed
And now I’m atop all of the sheets
Crawling on my knees
Choking on the air that you breathe 

Come on Holy Roller
Let me out the corner 
Make me think that I’m in control
I thought you was a kitten
Till you started hissing 
Scratching at me like I’m a post
If I let your daughter
Push me underwater 
Can I fall asleep with the ghost?
If I let your daughter
Turn me to a martyr
Is Jesus gonna save my soul?
