Ashe Helter Skelter Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Summertime has crystalized, ice blurring glass windowpanes
Tantalized, hypnotized, "You're happy, you're happy", they say
Try hard as I may, think I'm losing my mind, I'm afraid
Nauseated, isolation, the ballroom was flooded by crowds
And all their mesmerized, eagle eyes watched me collapse to the ground

[Pre-Chorus]
Under all of the haze and the gaze, I just needed a place to lie down

[Chorus]
So, I'm not leaving the house today
I've run outta words I can say
Now nowhere feels safe anymore
I'm calling in sick to thе rest of this year
Nothing you see herе is as it appears
I had hopes, but I don't
Think I can go on with the show
[Verse 2]
Foul play at the cabaret, our bodies were covered in chills
Helter skelter in gold decanters
Was melting the floor where it spilled

[Pre-Chorus] Let's all raise a toast to the things we love most
Turning to smoke

[Chorus]
So, I'm not leaving the house today
I've run out of words I can say
Now nowhere feels safe anymore
I'm calling in sick to the rest of this year
Nothing you see here is as it appears
I had hopes, but I don't
Think I can go on with the show

[Bridge]
And if I had the chance (I had the chance), I'd start over again
Back to where we began (Where we began), I'd start over again
I'm not leaving the house today

[Chorus]
I'm calling in sick to the rest of this year
Nothing you see here is as it appears
You can all go back home
Don't think I can go on with the show
[Outro]
And if I had the chance (I had the chance), I'd start over again
I'd forgive and forget (Forgive and forget), and start over again
