Lyrics

Well, it's not fair, it's not even close
You tied me down
Where I'm forced to watch as you poke holes in every part of me
Containing something secretly
Something sacred to me
I lied my face off when I said that I would be okay
It's never fine when you go away
These cuts run deep, these scars are permanent, and always on display
This makes things difficult for me

It's not fair, it's not even close
You fed me the sun
Burned me up inside and watched me choke on everything we did
On everything we lived
Let's see if I can live again
I lied my face off when I said that I would be okay
It's never fine when you go away
These cuts run deep, these scars are permanent, and always on display
This makes things difficult for me

Head like an empty, sterile room
Somehow I made a mess
Like watching newborn babies crack from work-related stress

Head like an empty sterile room

Somehow I made a mess

Like watching newborn babies crack from work-related stress
I'm bad luck, can't fuck got no reflection today
Maybe I'll stay down next time I get hit by a train

By a train
I lied my face off when I said that I would be okay
It's never fine when you go away
