Floorboards Lyrics - Lost Isles - Oceans Ate Alaska

Asking so many questions 

Finding so little answers 

My friends told me to give up the ghost 

And move on 

But I don't like to take my chances 

To take my chances 

Pick me up off the floorboards 

I'm not dead and buried yet 

They always seem to creak 

When I needed someone to speak to 

They've been the only thing I've talked to in weeks 

Where were you 

Where were you? 

Stitch me up and make me new 

I need someone to pull me through 

Endless nights with open wounds 

I've been to hell and back because of you 

Why tell me I need to change? 

When you woke up in someone else bed 

Without even knowing their name 

I may have crossed the line 

This Time! 

But I sure as hell hope you have a rope for this climb 

From here on out it's all a downward slope 

And I'm not falling for anyone or anything 

Other than the noose you tied around my neck 

I've lost all sense of space and time 

Just thinking about when you were mine 

The days become weeks and the weeks into months 

I refuse to put on these implausible fronts 

To face the world would cause me to self destruct 

To face the world would cause me to self destruct 

The days become weeks and the weeks into months 

I refuse to put on these implausible fronts 

To face the world would cause me to self destruct 

To face the world 

Stitch me up and make me new 

I need someone to pull me through 

Endless nights with open wounds 

I've been to hell and back because of you 

Stitch me up and make me new 

I've been to hell and back because of you 

Pick me up off the floorboards 

I'm not dead and buried yet 

They always seem to creak 

When I needed someone to speak to 

They've been the only thing I've talked to in weeks 

Where were you 

Where were you? 

Pick me up (Up!) off the floorboards 

I'm not dead and buried yet 

So pick me up (Up!) off the floorboards 

I'm not dead and buried yet!
