lyrics

FLATLINE (Turner/Sartini)
--------------

I wanna leave it behind 'til all my demons are blind,
I’ll kneel down before your altar while you preach to the choir.
'Cos I’ve been waiting so long so save me,
Grant pardon to my hurt and baby.

Take the control,
And swallow me whole,
Before I flatline.

At night I’m sleeping when the beast takes it’s charge,
To force me down onto my knees to strum the strings of your heart.
Before I feel so cold cos’ maybe,
You’ve bit off more than you can chew now baby.

Just take the control,
And swallow me whole,
Before I flatline.
Help me reach for the sky,
'Cause I’d sooner die than flatline.

I want it all and I want it now,
I want to bring about a change with each solemn vow.
I’ll tell you anything you want so you don’t say goodbye,
I’d even sell you all your dreams in exchange for a lie.

Now take the control,
And swallow me whole,
Before I flatline.
Help me reach for the sky,
'Cause I’d sooner die than flatline.

Just take the control and swallow me whole,
Take the control and swallow me whole.
Help me reach for the sky 'cause I’d rather die,
Help me reach for the sky 'cause I’d rather die than flatline.
