American Deja Vu Lyrics

I'm restless in our bedroom and I'm restless with my faith.
No old sins and old ways.
But I fear the reaper.
So when it's my time I'll find the way
To take me down and when all that remains is the way to take my doubt.

It’s suddenly haunting.
It’s suddenly scaring me that I'm still drowning and pulling you down underneath.
I'm starting to panic and I'm starting to feel it sink.
The world is what you want but you're better off beneath it with me.

And I failed to make amends.
Isn't it a shame you say all my sins and taste what I've done wrong
But when I find my peace of mind I'll take you along.
To take me down and when all that remains is the way to take my doubt.

It’s suddenly haunting.
It’s suddenly scaring me that I'm still drowning and pulling you down underneath.
I'm starting to panic and I'm starting to feel it sink.
The world is what you want but you're better off beneath it with me.

So you take the bad way.
Bad state better no.
Take off the lies.

Never say never stay awake to say you're wrong.
Always in a state that I don't know,
Taking up your lover's time.
So why are you alone?

It’s suddenly haunting.
It’s suddenly scaring me that I'm still drowning and pulling you down underneath.
I'm starting to panic and I'm starting to feel it sink.
The world is what you want but you're better off beneath it with me.

Cover art for American Deja Vu lyrics by Emarosa

"When two people who are terrible together can't pull themselves apart, you end up with a song like this. You have that feeling of knowing it'll hurt, knowing you're going to end up destroyed, but you still hold on. There’s that realization that you’re losing your identity in a love. You're not a “you” anymore, you're a "we." It's such a bad love, but you can't shake it. So you pull each other down, deeper and deeper. If you're going to be miserable, it may as well be together." - Bradley
