Blitz Kids – Long Road
Intro: C F Am G
Verse
I’ve created a monster
It feeds on my guilt
I’m lying with vultures
They’re watching me wilt
Patiently waiting for me to decay
I’ve got half of my breath left
I’m one stitch away
And no there’s no decorum
They won’t be polite
They’ll just rip up my bones
Till there’s no flesh in sight
But I’ll be fine
Chorus
It’s a long road to the top
When your friends play the anchor
You call they don’t answer
Don’t ask me to watch
While you’re killing yourself
Heartbreaks, mistakes
Trust me I’m a mess
But I beat myself best
It’s a long road to the top
When you're on your own
Interlude: C F Am G
Verse 2
When the feast is all over
The crowd disappears
I’m left with an uneasy sense
That I’m soon to face all my fears
This is the only way I have to show you
The things I’m too terrified for anyone to know
Honestly it’s just to be alone
But I'll be fine
Chorus
It’s a long road to the top
When your friends play the anchor
You call they don’t answer
Don’t ask me to watch
While you’re killing yourself
Heartbreaks, mistakes
Trust me I’m a mess
But I beat myself best
It’s a long road to the top
When you're on your own
Bridge
I wish there was an easy way to live my life
I’m sick of always acting like I’m doing fine
This is me 23 come to end so easily
I’m out of time Whoa
I’m taking all the chances that a boy should take
I’ve past the point to care about the bones I break
This is me 23 king of my own destiny
I will be fine
Chorus
It’s a long road to the top
When your friends play the anchor
You call they don’t answer
Don’t ask me to watch
While you’re killing yourself
Heartbreaks, mistakes
Trust me I’m a mess
But I beat myself best
It’s a long road to the top
When you're on your own
Ending
The perfect way to meet my end
Free for all with all my friends
Dig your teeth into my skin
(Loop ending)
