Original track by I AM MANDRAKE

lyrics

Empty, the pedals hit the floor
and it destroys me, this should have been more
their eyes are gaping as they to understand
this colorful young man, 'cause you see

We've chiseled the roots and we've padded the sides
but the tents all want to fall down
We've managed the moves and we've tightened the rhymes
but the tents all want to fall down

My ship is sailing west salute the epitome of pain
I cannot drive this mess, its like a bullet to my brain
and if I can obsess, for another minute or a verse
this panic in my chest has got me weak at the knees, ah

We've chiseled the roots and we've padded the sides
but the tents all want to fall down
We've managed the moves and we've tightened the rhymes
but the tents all want to fall down

I've lost my point of view, putting my mind on the line just to find it
I've hit a spell I can't undo, watching my high subside as I ride it
feel my vowels less powerful, rhymes seem blind
while the kick drums clipping as the crowd keeps time
I've lost my point of view, putting my mind on the line, but the tents all want to fall down

but the tents all wanna fall down

but the tents all wanna fall down

My ship is sailing west salute the epitome of pain
I cannot drive this mess, its like a bullet to my brain
and if I can obsess, for another minute or a verse
this panic in my chest has got me weak at the knees, ah

We've chiseled the roots and we've padded the sides
but the tents all want to fall down
We've managed the moves and we've tightened the rhymes
but the tents all want to fall down

I've lost my point of view, putting my mind on the line just to find it
I've hit a spell I can't undo, watching my high subside as I ride it
feel my vowels less powerful, rhymes seem blind
while the kick drums clipping as the crowd keeps time
I've lost my point of view, putting my mind on the line, but the tents all want to fall down
