lyrics

I, for one
I'm for everyone who ever fell in love
Connected in the margins of another space
A capital offense if you do

I forget
I look at a picture of a cigarette
An admirable label on a burning end
But bad company
Take it with ya
Save it for the end

I suppose
I could do a little bit of rambling
Something for the people that don't understand
What it takes to be passionate about everything you do
Everything
Everything you do

All the bees and bears will never be the same
But they're coming for you

I forget
Holding on to things is never turning out
I'm burning all the things that I was putting out
So don't come to me
Take it with ya
Save it for the end
Save it for the end

I suppose
I could do a little bit of rambling
Something for the people that don't understand
What it takes to be passionate about everything you do
Everything
Everything you do
