"The Contract" lyrics - TWENTY ONE PILOTS

[Pre-Chorus:]
I check the doors, check the windows and pull the blinds
I check the clock, wondering what he'll pull this time
I have a feeling that necromancer's outside
And I'm just tryna stay quiet

[Chorus:]
I don't sleep much, that's crazy, how'd you know that?
Keep myself up, that's maybe how you know that
Ooh, promises and contracts I used to keep
I don't sleep much, that's crazy, how'd you know that?
Keep myself up, that's maybe how you know that
Ooh, my hallucination I used to see

Wake up and I find out, did a change up
Wait, did it change up?
Is it light out yet? Better find out, bet
Better walk around the edge of the room and the bed
Where I hide my face, pace around
Better try to breathe, pace around, pace around

[Pre-Chorus:]
I check the doors, check the windows, and pull the blinds
I check the clock, wondering what he'll pull this time
I have a feeling that necromancer's outside
And I'm just tryna stay quiet

[Chorus:]
I don't sleep much, that's crazy, how'd you know that?
Keep myself up, that's maybe how you know that
Ooh, promises and contracts I used to keep
I don't sleep much, that's crazy, how'd you know that?
Keep myself up, that's maybe how you know that
Ooh, my hallucination I used to see

[Post-Chorus:]
I used to see
Sleep, I found, ooh

[Bridge:]
I wanna get out there (Ooh-ooh)
But I don't try (Ooh-ooh)
I wanna get out there (Ooh-ooh)
But I don't try (Ooh-ooh)

[Pre-Chorus:]
I check the clock, wondering what he'll pull this time
I have a feeling that necromancer's outside
And I'm just tryna stay quiet

[Chorus:]
I don't sleep much, that's crazy, how'd you know that?
I'll keep myself up, that's maybe how you know that
Ooh, promises and contracts I used to keep
I don't sleep much, that's crazy, how'd you know that?
Keep myself up, that's maybe how you know that
Ooh, my hallucination I used to see

[Post-Chorus:]
I used to see
I used to see
Ooh, my hallucination I used to see

[Outro:]
I used to see, it felt so real
But now I plead, just take the deal
I promised you a contract
I promised you a contract
