I wanna wear a long sleeve
'Cuz I didn't have the courage for the leap
When I'd feel the wind I'd sigh in relief
When it were blue and red I'd feel happy

I feel like covering up
All my sins, my bluffs
My uncompleted songs

When the final chord strums it'll still not be over
For the requiem
Is hours longer

And I'm sorry I think like this
I'm just so empty
When your life seems devoid of meaning
Fighting for it feels just as weird


I wanna wear a long sleeve
Since I've always been afraid of heights
I wanna wear a necktie
Feel it grasp my neck, speck of desire

It's ok there's no need to worry
I'm too young for it,
I don't have the courage

I'm cowardly, selfish, emotive
I'm just a fool
Covered in salt tears

But if I fell onto the pool of red
Would you visit me in velvet black?
Could you bring the prettiest purple flowers?
But no need to rush, I'm just a coward
