you've been on my mind for such a long time.
i can't even hide.
you'll always be right by my side.
i've been told i'm smart for finding parallels in life.
"if you connect the dots maybe you can see the light."
yeah but it's not worth a shit and i'm still standing with no pride.
"what's holding you back? why don't you give it a try?"
"well if you lose them once you better not lose them twice.
it only takes a little bit of time to do it right.
you could be a coward or you could be a sign.
what's holding you back? why don't you give it a try?"

won't you light it for me?
i don't care if it's pouring.
give me the fix that i need.
i don't care about dying.
i've never wanted anything so badly.
you know i crave it so please give me what i need.
i'm just a dog and i'm on yr leash.
so pull me close and choke me.
i still smell you on me.
can feel my stomach churning.
everyone's so boring.
i don't care about dying.

singer.

apologize for being quiet.
because he knows that you deserve it.
but only says it in his lyrics,
because he knows that you won't hear it.
saying nothing very loudly.
hopes you'll be impressed by everything that he reads.
never the center of attention.
knows he wants it but he never would admit it.
i'll never be the one to show you all the things that you grow to love.
what did i expect?
maybe i hoped that you'd say something like:
"baby yr impressive
cause you know so many lyrics
used to describe yr depression.
maybe you can recite them for me."
such a sad body.
singer full of sad things.
swears it helps his writing.
won't get the help that he needs.
i say that i'll keep my mouth shut,
but i can't keep it up for too long.
it's like something inside me is constantly begging me to throw a fit and make a scene.
don't you see?
can't keep the bad luck from happening.
never believed until it happened to me.
i think it's happening to me.

happy now.

you know that i always hate coming here.
i've been around so long that it fills me with fear
to think about what you've been up to and how
you don't even think about me now.
i used to want to hear every little detail.
i used to want to be the one that you know would never fail.
don't you think that we could be a perfect pair?
as long as it's with me you don't gotta be fair.
tell me all about the books you hated.
tell me what you think is so frustrating.
show me all the songs that helped you make it.
every single thought you think's worth saving.
i don't ever want to waste a second.
i don't ever want to feel like i'm not doing my best.
i could say more but you already know the rest.
it's better if i keep my thoughts in my head.
by now you'd think i've learned my lesson.
i'll ruin anything that i can my hands on.
i'd love to find out someday that i'm wrong.
can't break the cycle so i'll just play along.
do you really mean it when you say
the only one yr in love with is me?
you never have to tell the truth to me.
you know that i'll believe it anyway.
so when you roll over in yr sleep,
i know that you don't mean to turn from me.
i couldn't say i blame you if you did,
but who really knows what yr thinking?
can you say that you are happy now?
i just hope that you are happy now.
