Last night I didn't touch a drink
just to know what missing you sober would feel like
I couldn't fall asleep because you were in my head
I guess I'll get drunk 'til I forget about you tonight

When I get hammered all on my own
I scream happy songs at the top of my lungs
try to avoid talking to other girls
so I just all together stay off of my phone

But after the moon reaches its height
and my loneliness has tucked me into bed
it doesn't matter if I'm sober or all the way fucked
because you won't be back to care for all of the skin that I've shed

All the hammers to the head and nails to the flesh
can keep tearing until there's none of me left
Strike your sticks and cast your stones
I'll take all of the blows until I'm nothing but bones

Nobody likes it when the credits roll
Nobody wants to see the curtains close
especially after watching someone like you steal the show
I don't regret the way that I loved you
even now that you're letting me go
even now that we're dead like disco

I'll be your ghost if you'll be my hologram
I tore open my soul for you
but you never seemed to give much of a damn
Nothing will ever hurt as much
as hearing you have to let me go
or hearing you say that we're dead like disco

There's no amount of drink that could make me forget
No amount of traction to stop this slip
But I'll try and erase you with every sip
and keep running until I start to tip

I'll leave the buzz behind, only drink coffee, my dear
Use a clear head to confront all of my thoughts and fears
Fight against the voices telling me to hurt myself
Try to avoid all the things that are bad for my health

As I'm stuck between the cosmic pulls of sun and moon
I'll still have nightmares and daydreams about you
The way your eyes went black when you broke my heart
All of the hands you held that weren't attached to my arms

I guess I'll be both the ghost and the hologram
What's the point in staying alive when this life is a scam?
Why do I keep holding on when you've already let this go?
Because I never wanted to be dead like disco
I gave this all I had just to get a knife in the throat
Now my love is as dead as disco
