SYD - The Pattern Lyrics

You tell yourself you're ruthless
The cold hard blade on the edge of a knife
But right below the surface
Cut right down and you will surely find
A deep-seated repetition, with painful precision
This pattern you've played out before

Things will never change when you're built like this
So find the prettiest mistake and give her a kiss

This is the pattern repeat it repeat it
This is the damage conceal it conceal it
Line it up exactly how you had it all before
End up where this all began, beginning once more

So you think that I deserve this?
This crippled core, this blind foresight
I kinda think I earned it
If I ever think at all these days I find
It's desire, that idiot fire, that burns any reason to a hot white light

Things will never change cuz I'm built like this
I'll find the prettiest mistake I'll give her a kiss

This is the pattern repeat it repeat it
This is the damage conceal it conceal it
Line it up exactly how you had it all before
End up where this all began, and begin once more
Is the pattern repeat it repeat it
This is the damage conceal it conceal it
Line it up exactly how you had it all before
End up where this all began, and begin once more
Begin once more

This is the pattern repeat it repeat it
This is the damage conceal it conceal it
Line it up exactly how you had it all before
End up where this all began, and begin once more
Is the pattern repeat it repeat it
This is the damage conceal it conceal it
Line it up exactly how you had it all before
End up where this all began, and begin once more
