Esoteric Survival

Verse 1

I keep my coins in a matchbook

I keep my name in my shoe

You said the world gets smaller

So I learned how to move

I sleep with one eye open

On a chair by the door

I got a map of the exits

Pinned under the floor

Pre-Chorus

If the walls start talking

I talk back low

If the ground starts shaking

I already know

Chorus

Esoteric survival

Esoteric survival

I keep my bones in line

I keep my pulse in style

Esoteric survival

Esoteric survival

You can take the gold

But I stay wild

Verse 2

I trade a look for a promise

I trade a grin for a key

The sweet ones come with questions

The sharp ones follow me

I got a pocket of thunder

And a scar that still glows

Every door I walk through

Has a little more soul

Pre-Chorus

If the walls start talking

I talk back low

If the ground starts shaking

I already know

Chorus

Esoteric survival

Esoteric survival

I keep my bones in line

I keep my pulse in style

Esoteric survival

Esoteric survival

You can take the gold

But I stay wild

Bridge

Say my name like a warning

I won't fold, I won't kneel

I was born in the after

With my hand on the wheel

Final Chorus

Esoteric survival

Esoteric survival

I keep my bones in line

I keep my pulse in style

Esoteric survival

Esoteric survival

You can take the gold

But I stay wild
