rejection letter - mackenzie shivers lyrics

Loading...

i’ve been wandering round with my nose cut off
i think it was trying to spite me
and i wish i wrote you a love song, but i didn’t
the morning’s hazy

the headline read “the whole world is watching you fail!”
you know i hung on every word
and i really meant to write this down, but i couldn’t
call me crazy

if i break my lungs and turn them into mockingbirds
would i ease up on myself?
if i break my promises and make them something better
would you tell me i’ve done well?

i’m hearing voices and they say, “don’t forget her”
and i will do anything i’m told
another day, another doleful endeavor
got a reputation to uphold

the headline left out a few minor details

if i break my lungs and turn them into fighting words
is it something i could sell?
if i break my promises and make them something better
would it be good for my health?
twenty fractured ribs
okay, i guess i deserve it
one more legion to dispel
twenty questions, twenty silences
a rejection letter
is this how the empire fell?
