Sometimes I feel like David Blaine
Addicted to doing dangerous things to my brain
Never cutting my losses
'Cause I can take all the blame
Just prove to myself a point that I'll never make
Sometimes I feel like David Blaine
Chewing on glass till it doesn't feel that insane
Nothing ever really feels like a big deal these days
When I'm just always trying to know what's on the other side of being afraid
'Cause I wouldn't
Stand on an 80 foot pillar in the middle of New York City
But honestly I get it, these days
I'm stuck in this measure of how to make myself proud
of me
but the line keeps moving farther way
If impossible's the final goal
I'm running off the edge
I only wanted
To believe that I believe myself
But it's exhausting
Never stopping
Past the finish line I've gotten lost
'Cause I'm following the failure that's been waiting for me all along
Sometimes I feel like David Blaine
Holding my breath on Oprah
For 17 minutes of pain
breaking the record and say its in science's name
But I'm lost in feat that appears just to be a sick game
I never wanted all your attention
But did it happen with no other witness
So I need you to listen
'Cause I'm stuck in this
measure of how to make myself proud of me
but I've been wondering what it means to win it
If impossible's the final goal
I'm running off the edge
I only wanted
To believe that I believe myself
But it's exhausting
Never stopping
Past the finish line I've gotten lost
'Cause I'm following the failure that's been waiting for me all along
The tightrope walker wants to fall
Building blocks to watch them tumble down
At the height of her career beside a dumpster passed out
No one's addicted to the winning of the game
Superheroes all just waiting for the one that they can't save
Maybe Icarus was smiling as he plummeted that drop
'Cause when you're trying to be invincible
You're really trying to find out that you're not
Nobody actually wants to believe that there's nothing greater than they are
If impossible's the final goal
I'm running off the edge
I only wanted to believe, I don't believe myself
It's exhausting
Never stopping
Past the finish line I've gotten lost
Cuz I can't escape my futile fate of going back to the dust
So I'm following the moment where I'm face to face with what I'm not
