You Look Great

i’ll bring you down even though i don’t want to
you’ll drag me around even though you would never try to
remind me again how i’m on my own
when the going gets tough you don’t wanna know
i can’t keep pretending to be strong
when i’m barely holding on
you look great you say
as i’m wasting away
you’ll pick everything apart
then act like you’re the one who’s hurt
remind me again how i’m on my own
when you’ve had enough, i’ll be the last to know
i can’t keep pretending to be strong
when i’m barely holding on
doesn’t matter what you do
i’m so over you
don’t try saying sorry
you can’t have anymore of me
you wanna be a superstar
but you always try too hard
you paint a pretty picture
we know they’ll never pick you
doesn’t matter what you do
i’m so over you
don’t try saying sorry
you can’t have anymore of me

i have always been lonely
even in the best company
my parents don’t like me
pleasant things made me angry
you’re the only one who sees
me as the best that i can be
i couldn’t look away
no matter how nervous you made me
i always wanted to stay
no matter how hard they pushed me
you’re the only one who sees
me as the best that i can be
drop of sunlight
i wanna bathe in your glow
i’ll hold you tight
i’m never gonna let you go
i never saw you coming
you called me out on all of my shit
i had all but given up on myself
you made me want to try to make it
you’re the only one who sees
me as the best that i can be
drop of sunlight
i wanna bathe in your glow
i’ll hold you tight
i’m never gonna let you go

Sad Year

you pretend that you’ve got heart
act like you care when i fall apart
you used me then called me careless
then you blew it up because you were jealous
the next sad year will go by faster
without you
without you
you say you’re taking care of yourself
i wish you the best of health
i won’t ask you to stay
because i’ve been wishing you’d move away
the next sad year will go by faster
without you
without you
tell yourself you cared about me
if that’s what you need to believe
you’re so hollow wish that you could feel the way that i do
you took notes on all my moods and then you sang like they all came from you
the next sad year will go by faster
without you
without you
tell yourself you cared about me
if that’s what you need to believe
don’t tell me how i’ve grown
when you’re gone i feel less alone

All Teeth

i’m all teeth
there’s nothing soft left in me
you’re in deep to the parts that
you don’t wanna see
i lie to myself
every day
if i ignore my reality
maybe it will go away
i give my best to nobody but you
you give your best to everyone but me
the good is turning
on us again
speak up, get pushed down
say silent, burn out
i give my best to nobody but you
you give your best to everyone but me
this pain’s in every breath
how do i cope with it
i wanted your help
when will i help myself
