lyrics

[Prome]

Simmer down now/
Simmer down simmer down simmer down now/
SHOUT livin for the rhythm and the sound now/
Way up in the clouds now, take a look around now/
It may be kinda hard to believe it, but its only always ever been/
Me and you and everything between us/
For the sake of the thrill/
Close your eyes, hold tight, baby just stay... Still/

What ever happened to we could live forever/
We would have each other, we could live together/
Just forget the rest of them, me and you girl/
What happened to that: baby we could rule the world/
And every now and then fly to the moon/
In other words baby kiss me. this be/
Our history, a past full of grab-ass and Listerine/
Listen see I just thought you had a thing for symmetry/
Had a thing for guys with a broken smile, broken step/
Broken heart every time you came along a broke his neck/
But there’s a difference between being broken open/
and owning that there’s only so many of those that know you best/
those willin to just chill and watch the world turn/
that’ll be right with you to watch the world burn/
that understand you well enough to get/
that it is what it is if it aint in the end/

Simmer down now/
Simmer down simmer down simmer down now/
SHOUT livin for the rhythm and the sound now/
Way up in the clouds now, take a look around now/
It may be kinda hard to believe it, but its only always ever been/
Me and you and everything between us/
For the sake of the thrill/
Close your eyes, hold tight, baby just stay... Still/

Sick of this shit always taste like licorice/
Why does ‘just friends’ always taste like gibberish/
Liquor-lipped tryna make amends but it stings a bit/
Tryna cling to anything that sticks to fingertips/
Ill-equipped tryna fight my own worst enemy/
But damn ill admit I’ve been running out of energy/
Runnin on empty see im tryna beat me venom/
And even the vendetta that’s been eating at my self-esteem/
Helplessly, haplessly, just copin’ with the basics/
But it happens that I’ve got a closet full of ultimatums/
And bones pilin’ up with piles of dust/
Its fine its just they tell me I don’t smile enough/
I’m tired as fuck and done, just done with being clever/
Lemme get a running start, rub my wings together it goes/
One. Two. Jump. Fly./
Don’t ever look back, or say goodbye/

Simmer down now/
Simmer down simmer down simmer down now/
SHOUT livin for the rhythm and the sound now/
Way up in the clouds now, take a look around now/
It may be kinda hard to believe it, but its only always ever been/
Me and you and everything between us/
For the sake of the thrill/
Close your eyes, hold tight... just stay... still/
