Just say what you said
So I can hear it in my head
Just say what you said
So I can hear it in my head
You keep repeating the same lies
My minds been racing
My heart keeps chasing behind
Just say what you said
So I can hear it in my head
Just say what you said
So I can hear it in my head
Just say what you said
So I can hear it in my head

You get what you give
Forget what they did
I can't seem to get away
I'm not so sure
That I've got what it takes
To make a change
'Cause lately it takes me
Longer to admit
Exactly how I've learned to deal with it
It's always the same
My confidence takes on a fragile
Form and shape
My fear gets the best of me
You get what's left while I'm restless
I crash and burn in my dreams
One day I hope
To be reflected on a frame
That claims a space on your shelf
Maybe you'll talk me off the ledge
On to your balcony instead
I can't describe how I feel
Is it wrong
Is it real
My minds been at it again
Creating tension with friends
I feel like I'm doing too much
Even though it's never been enough
My minds been at it again
Blend in and pretend it'll end
I always thought something was off with me
But I was wrong
I always thought that I'd be missing things
But I moved on
Now I know that happiness
Begins with me and my choices
I'm trying to be brave enough to speak
On the days that I feel voiceless
You said you won't give up
But I already did
I had every intention to mention
That this was it
I'm not falling behind
I'm just wasting time
They say you get what you give
So tell me how to deal with it
It's always the same
My confidence takes on a fragile
Form and shape
My fear gets the best of me
You get what's left
I've only got myself to blame
I'm not ashamed
Even though I'm still afraid
I need to be up when I'm down
And stop fucking around
It's all one in the same
My fear gets the best of me
One day I hope
To be reflected on a frame
That claims a space on your shelf
Maybe you'll talk me off the ledge
On to your balcony instead

'Cause I'm not who
I use to be
When I'm with you
And you're with me
It doesn't matter which lies
That we tell ourselves
'Cause the truth we deny
Doesn't seem to help
It doesn't matter which lies
That we tell ourselves
Between you and me
I know that things seem complicated
I know that things were left unsaid
I never thought I'd be someone you hated
But between you and me
You're better off
Sit back and relax
Is what she's telling me
Press your lips against the glass
Until there's chemistry
Sit back and relax
Is what she's telling me
'Cause I'm not who I use to be
But I am always in my way
And I hate all the things I say
But I am always in my way
I'm always in my way
And I can't seem to shake this
I guess I'll do my best
To fake it, too
It doesn't matter which lies
That we tell ourselves
'Cause the truth we deny
Doesn't seem to help
It doesn't matter which lies
That we tell ourselves
Between you and me
I know that things seem complicated
I know that things were left unsaid
I never thought I'd be someone you hated
But between you and me
You're better off
These days it's strange
You exist in the peripheral
There's just a scar or two left
From the physical
If I could trace my finger
From north to south
I'd head west and drink an ocean
To wash your name out of my mouth
'Cause I'm not who
I use to be
When I'm with you
And you're with me
And I can't seem to shake this
I guess I'll do my best
To fake it, too
I know that things seem complicated
I know that things were left unsaid
I never thought I'd be someone you hated
But between you and me
You're better off
You're better off thinking your right
You're better off
And I'm better off saying goodbye
You're better off
You're better off
You're better off
You're better off
You're better off
It doesn't matter which lies
That we tell ourselves
'Cause the truth we deny
Doesn't seem to help
It doesn't matter which lies
That we tell ourselves
Between you and me
I know that things seem complicated
I know that things were left unsaid
I never thought I'd be someone you hated
But between you and me
You're better off
But between you and me
You're better off dead
These days it's strange
You exist in the peripheral
There's just a scar or two left
From the physical
If I could trace my finger
From north to south
I'd head west and drink an ocean
To wash your name out of my mouth

I've been wasting time
Watching years go by
'Cause I've been conditioned
To obey and listen
It feeds my addiction
I've been wasting time
Watching years go by
'Cause I've been conditioned
To obey and listen
It feeds my addiction
So welcome to the flawed life
Of love and grief
You had me thinking
I wouldn't be anything
It took some time
To unsee the things I've seen
But now I'm focused
Like you're focused on me
Everybody is so easily distracted
But can they practice what they preach
Everybody is so easily distracted
But can they practice what they preach
So what you going to say about me
That I haven't told myself before
'Cause I'm not losing myself
Is it worth it with your back against the wall
I'm not willing to give this all up
'Cause I'm not losing myself
So welcome to the flawed life
Of love and grief
You had me thinking
I wouldn't be anything
It took some time
To unsee the things I've seen
But now I'm focused
Like you're focused on me
'Cause I know
That I'm never looking back
'Cause I'm never getting back
All the things I've lost intact
I keep lying awake
Not sure how long I'll take
I've been holding on
For something more
Before I break
It doesn't matter what I do
They'll talk about what I've done
I shouldn't waste my breathe on you
But these fucks I give
I'd still give you none
So in the end was it worth it
Jesus Christ
You saw the world as a burden
So you left us to rot and die
I live my life with one purpose
To sacrifice
I wake up every morning
Cursing your god I'm still alive
I'm so sick of this shit
'Cause every chance that I get
Is just a swing and a miss
You thought I'd list off
Everything that's pissed off me
But I can barely breathe
Even when she's next to me
So in the end was it worth it
Jesus Christ
You saw the world as a burden
So you left us to rot and die
I live my life with one purpose
To sacrifice
I wake up every morning
Cursing your god I'm still alive
I keep lying awake
Not sure how long I'll take
I've been holding on
For something more
Before I break
I keep lying awake
Not sure how long I'll take
I've been holding on
For something more
Before I break
