How To Start

No one needs to know where you lie
Or why you only like beginnings
It feels like you’ve known where it’s all leading
Like fire knows it’s burning what you feed it
And the party’s dead
No one’s making sense
When she pulls me up like a cigarette
“This is not your place
These are not your friends
And it’s obvious”
Yeah, it’s obvious

You make it so easy
Rolling in this feeling
So why do I picture you leaving
Before we begin
Hold me, don’t speak
Show me how to start
Show me how to start

Help me lean off the edge
The first time I can’t see where the end is
And the water’s deep
Your head’s underneath
And it comes between you and everything
You give warning signs
I see flashing lights
Let me drown inside
Yeah, let’s drown…

You make it so easy
Rolling in this feeling
So why do I picture you leaving
Before we begin
Hold me, don’t speak
Show me how to start
Show me how to start

You give warning signs
I see flashing lights
You can use me love
You can use me up
Pick my body clean
Sell my soul to me
Let me drown inside
Yeah let’s drown

You make it so easy
Rolling in this feeling
So why do I picture you leaving
Before we begin
Hold me, don’t speak
Show me how to start
