lyrics

am i another tick on your list?
people you say not to worry about
bet they’re already on it
i try to make this shit desist
can’t give loneliness a cold shoulder
cuz the pains hard to resist

you’ll always find a flaw in me
that you didn’t see yesterday
you’ll rip the scab off clean
but there’s always someone else to blame
you’ll never own the mess you made
just make me feel depressed again
you’re not there for me at all
but want me to be the cushion that breaks your fall?

take another piece of me
leave me broken indelibly
i’ll forget all the things
you promise indefinitely
i try and put these thoughts to bed
but you’re always in my head
thinking something bads at large
i wish i didn’t self-sabotage

is something bad at large?
or is it only self-sabotage?
do you wanna break my heart?
or is it only self-sabotage?

you never care what i say
the words go in through one ear and back out the other way
i really want all this to end
but i just can’t trust the people that you pushed me to befriend

always cry over wasted time
i guess you know i never realised
that i needed it to see
who i am and who i’m meant to be?
too many times i cried myself to sleep
trying to counteract reality
took too long in doubt of myself
to put on a smile for everyone else

you’ll always find a flaw in me
that you didn’t see yesterday
you’ll rip the scab off clean
but there’s always someone else to blame
you’ll never own the mess you made
just make me feel depressed again
you’re not there for me at all
but want me to be the cushion to break your fall?

still feel your breath on my neck
thats how i know you’re still there
can’t keep emotions in check
i guess they’re just too much to bear
too long in silence, i tore out my hair
too long denying i put myself there
your mind is a diamond, but mines made of glass
i wanna believe that the good things’ll last

you’ll always find a flaw in me
that you didn’t see yesterday
you’ll rip the scab off clean
but there’s always someone else to blame
you’ll never own the mess you made
just make me feel depressed again
you’re not there for me at all
but want me to be the cushion to break your fall?

take another piece of me
leave me broken indelibly
i’ll forget all the things
you promise indefinitely
i try and put these thoughts to bed
but they’re always in my head
thinking something bads at large
i wish i didn’t self-sabotage

is something bad at large?
or is it only self-sabotage?
do you wanna break my heart?
or is it only self-sabotage?
is something bad at large?
or is it only self-sabotage?
do you wanna break my heart?
or is it only self-sabotage?
