You're my rock, you're my hard place.
Overstayed again at my place.
If we needed space we shouldn't meet this way.
I swear that caring nearly killed me.
There's no saying that politely.
Steadily waiting for this week's new outrage.
Everybody's favourite, you say I'm everybody's favourite.
What's that supposed to make me think?

And I have never felt more alive than when I'm sat in the backseat of your broke-down car staring off into the stars, but then I wake up.
And you're still there, in the back of my mind, behind my eyes. Just an inch out of reach but I still try- just a phone call away but I'm too shy to consider ever seeing myself as anything but a burden.
You'll never love me, I'm certain.
Makeup smeared, words unclear, I've already said too much for you to unhear my speech of adoration, it's not too hard to see why I've hated myself for years. If I were you I'd just leave it here-
there's not much else to see,
there's not much ecstasy.

Early morning in the dead of night
Woke up early just to take my time
She called me on my mobile phone
I said I’m on my way back home
Take it easy better stay inside
Repetition most of half my life
Sometimes living I don’t feel alive
Always falling won’t survive the dive inside my mind
People calling and my phone is fried
Makes no difference I can’t tell the time
There’s a pain deep inside my side
Deeper meaning think that doctor lied
There’s some meaning deep inside my life
Haven’t found it but I sure I have tried
She called me on my mobile phone
I couldn’t find it on my way back home
I’m all alone

Inside, waiting on something
I'm not surprised, some kind of nothing
It is bluuuuue skies, but I'm not going to go outside
Cuz I'll be waiting
Something that'll never come, I've been waiting on something and it'll never come
There's a postcard sat on my doorstep and that
Blue car hasn't passed my house yet, it is
Dark skies, but I'm not going to go outside
Cuz I'll be waiting

Be how you want me and I'll be the same
See them how you see me and see me please
mmmmm
Tell me everything that I don't know right now
Pay what you owe, you owe me, you know
mmmmm

It only makes sense
that we share the same bed
that you leave your stuff here
and I pretend to forget
As if there's anything to build to
As if it matters what we've been through
As if I ever really loved you
As if I ever really loved you, now I can't see past
the truth hurts and the pain comes fast
such a beautiful trip, such an ugly comedown.
