lyrics

When I’m nervous I can’t think. My brain it just shuts off. I can’t get out of bed and I cannot stay asleep long enough to gain the strength in my limbs to navigate through this meaningless day. Where the conversations are forced and the words come out all wrong. But it’s a bullshit, when I crack a yellow-toothed smile and I stain my teeth with white lies, with half-truths. Cause every time I drink, I don’t get drunk enough to dance next to you at that party. I don’t let things go so easily. I hold on to everything, for a least a couple of years. It’s like I got an anvil strapped to my chest and I’ve been dropped in some horrible ocean where I keep sinking deeper and deeper in self-doubt and regret. I can’t let go of anything. Hell is only what we create. If only I could engage and close my eyes when I kiss you instead of being afraid if this is gonna matter when you move back to Chicago. Oh baby, please don’t go. Cause if I want it to matter, I’ve gotta stop thinking about how much I want it to matter. The lights are on, nobody’s home, I can’t find the words to this song. I’m overcome with apathy, I’m only in love with what’s in front of me. Just know that I’ll never be what you need. But I lie like I’m on fire just to get you to stay and I’ll kick and scream when you decide to leave. Just know the truth is that I’m better off alone.
