[English]

Rainbow roses, fancy ice Melting down inside your eyes

A dreamlike Site, so real Feelings drifting like the tide

I left my guard down for a minute I never play with feelings but

I thought you were committed The way that I’m addicted is specific

It’s your vibe, it’s your mind It’s the things I can’t describe

I’ve been running backwards Running backwards like a marathon

You're in every moment I can't control it

Only the senses that have tamed me Keep doing whatever they want, no

I know I’m an icon Watch me with the lights on

But she got a hold on me like a python

I don’t wanna lose her Yeah, she was my future

Shot to the chest, I was falling for the shooter I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna have to let her go

I should move on, I know I know I’m an icon

Without you, all the lights are off But she got a hold on me like a python

(Yeah yeah) I gave you my time when I didn’t have much

All of my feelings swept under the rug I’m touring the world, but I’m

missing the one who held it down Music is how I’ve been venting now

Broken glass, I’m bleeding out Overseas, I’m selling out

Private planes, I got taste I got seven golden rings

My accountant called me up, said the money's stacked to space

What a snake with them eyes I won’t even try to lie

I wish I could let you go I wish I could say goodbye

I’ve been running backwards Running backwards like a marathon

You're in every moment I can't control it

Only the senses that have tamed me Keep doing whatever they want, no

I know I’m an icon Watch me with the lights on

But she got a hold on me like a python

I don’t wanna lose her Yeah, she was my future

Shot to the chest, I was falling for the shooter I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna have to let her go

I should move on, I know I know I’m an icon

Without you, all the lights are off But she got a hold on me like a python
