Machine Gun Kelly (mgk)

When you re there
A perfect night s a nightmare too
I feel so cold, I m hurt with you
Shades of pink and shades of blue

Uh, this feels like the opposite of real life
On my way to Valhalla on a steel bike
Living fantasy like J. K. Rowling
I m J. R. R. Tolkien, these spliffs I love smokin
My hands full of stones and gold
I m Lord of the Rings, needles sewed, new clothes
But it s more than it seems, I seen dreams implode
Seen teens turn old before they grown
Burnt out before they fade away slow
I used to pick you up, now I don t
There s some things I would r?wind
But I don t have the remot?
There s some things I manifested I wish I never wrote
And all my friends? Really family
Cause my bloodline s ghost (Uh-uh)

Yeah, it s the life we chose
Highways and Hellcats with Angel Wing doors
I know I look back, the path went rogue
I know I look back
I m halfway home
(I m halfway home)

So far away from where you are (Uh-uh)
Without a cause, I know I m fucked up
But I m not sorry
And I will meet you where you are (Uh-uh; yeah)
I make my own luck
Because I don t believe in karma

I stopped countin my age
Because my face still look the same
So instead of years, I use pain
And if that s the case, then I m five hunnid
I been in a race with my trauma, can t outrun it
No wonder why I drive like I m being chased
Pack up and move houses instead of renovate
Put my newborn daughter to bed at eight
Then I m back on the interstate
Chain-smoking, lookin like I m bout to hyperventilate
Got everything to celebrate on the outside
Still none of that eliminates what is inside
And since I ve gotta find a way to cope
I start by reversin some of the words I wrote
Instead of being a demon, be a beacon of hope
Cause one day we re hangin out
The next day you re hangin from a rope, uh

So far away from where you are (Uh-uh)
Without a cause, I know I m fucked up
But I m not sorry
And I will meet you where you are (Uh-uh; yeah)
I make my own luck
Because I don t believe in karma

(La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la)
Without a cause, I know I m fucked up
But I m not sorry
(La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la)
I make my own luck
Because I don t believe in karma

Yeah, this feels like the opposite of real life
Uh, yeah
This feels like the opposite of real life
Uh, yeah, mm-mm

When you re there
A perfect night s a nightmare too
I feel so cold, I m hurt with you
Shades of pink and shades of blue
