[Verse 1]
Wake up on the bathroom floor
Teeth feel wired
Tongue like glass
Blue pill bottle on the sink
Laughing at me as I pass
You said
“Just one more weekend”
Now it’s winter in July
Caught your shadow in the mirror
Red-eyed
Asking me “why?”
[Chorus]
You’re my chemical halo
Burning holes in my brain
Every time that I say no
You come back in my veins
You’re my favorite tornado
Tear me up
Leave me stained
I keep praying I’ll let go
But you’re carved in my chain
[Verse 2]
Phone full of broken numbers
All those ghosts that sold me sleep
I still taste you on my molars
Biting down on every secret I keep
Mama’s voice on the voicemail
“Baby
Call me when you land”
But I’m grounded in this motel
Holding fire in my hand
[Chorus]
You’re my chemical halo
Burning holes in my brain
Every time that I say no
You come back in my veins
You’re my favorite tornado
Tear me up
Leave me stained
I keep praying I’ll let go
But you’re carved in my chain
[Bridge]
I don’t know this person
Shaking in my skin (oh)
All these bright white promises
Faded to a grin
If I crawl till my knees bleed
Will you let me stay clean?
Or will you paint the sky buzzing
On the back of my dreams?
[Chorus]
You’re my chemical halo
Burning holes in my brain
Every time that I say no
You come back in my veins
You’re my favorite tornado
Tear me up
Leave me stained
I keep praying I’ll let go
Still you circle my name
(chemical halo)
You’re carved in my chain
