lyrics

Are you wide awake? Do you wanna break the walls down?
Are you terrified of me
all the poison drinks inside my elevator head,
and the starlight glistening

February, i was wondering how to find you
but i never thought to ask
now there's an angel in the swimming water
and she tells me we can last

You're a useless mess, i don't know how i need you
we are rocks and waterfalls
when you ran away with my pepperoni pizza,
I was sure you had it all

But february, i was answering your phone calls
my fishy, rope-swing love
now there's an angel in the swimming water
and a mountain right above

I fall in love
with everyone I talk to, it's an
eight-ball waiting game
I held you off
I wanted not to see you at the
bottom of the lake
february I was wondering how to find you
but I never should have asked
now there's an angel in the swimming water
saying drown inside your glass

you've got fish tank eyes, you're much too drunk to love me
in your girder guard-rail town
will you ride away on your bicycle above me
so I can't see if you drown

february, I was wondering how to find you
with the angel on your back
now I realize you're exactly where I want you
I might have a heart attack
