about

A song pulled from the depths of a broken heart, and a blistering, raw portrayal of how passion can make monsters of us all.

lyrics

10:57

Deep breaths and I’ll count to ten,
I can’t do this to myself again.
Chest bursts I can’t concentrate,
I’m in no fit state to legislate.
Bad things happen to good people,
and good people do bad things;
I can’t trust myself around you now
so I’m gonna have to clip these wings.

Cause if I go to you,
nothing will change
just another 2 weeks
to rearrange and baby,
we can’t keep going up in flames.

It’s 10:57 the lights were reflecting as I flew past the station,
fluorescent drops course down the windscreen.
Let’s say that it’s all right
cause tonight we lost the will to fight and
you’ll be showing her the sights,
as he’s tracing a finger up the ladder in my tights.

Best intentions you forgot your edges,
you left them razor sharp.
I sought safety in your pledges, too late I’m sliced apart.
So I’ll lean in to someone new
days pass think less and less of you
cause I’d rather dress in this disguise than turn into something I despise.

If I’d gone to you, nothing would change,
just another 2 months of fucking games,
tailspin baby, we’re going down in flames.
It’s 10:57 the lights were reflecting as I flew past the station,
fluorescent drops course down the windscreen.
Let’s say that it’s all right
'cause tonight we lost the will to fight and
you’ll be showing her the sights,
as he’s tracing a finger up the ladder in my tights.
