lyrics

I live in a tower, I’m 20 years old
They say my house is full of ghosts,
but is it really my house if a really old ghost
has lived here since before I was born?

I’m a detective renegade cop
I don’t take off cause the crime don’t stop,
so I'll never stop, I'll never stop,
retrograde cop, lemonade pop

All this will be juvenilia
and I am setting up to fail
You hear my every single word
but still don’t understand me well
I’ve heard this dialogue before,
I thought I put this on the shelf
Is it just history repeating,
or do I repeat myself?

Stop, I remember this talk
this is the prelude to the second act drop
Where can we stop, where can we stop?
I wanna get off, I wanna get off

This time can we end things well?
We don’t have to fight, I’ll never tell
but this was a dream, but the kind of dream
where everything is a pixelated scene

All this will be juvenilia
and I am setting up to fail
You hear my every single word
but still don’t understand me well
I’ve heard this dialogue before
Should I just jump out of the frame
Is it just history repeating,
or do I mess up the same?

Do I bother to say “remember me”
as the cardboard buildings
collapse in a heap

Your glass eyes weather into sand
You hear “take my hand,”
but that’s just somebody impersonating me again

All this will be juvenilia
and I am setting up to fail
You hear my every single word
and still don’t understand me well
Is this history repeating,
or do I repeat myself?
Would you say if I repeat myself?
Would you say if I repeat myself?

I like in a tower, I’m 20 years old
They say my house is full of ghosts
but they're just the ghosts of the ways I’ve been before
I am a ghost of the ways I was before

Detective renegade cop
investigating the things that I’ve said wrong
Just a gatorade cop, a retrograde,
Gatorade cop, lemonade, stop
