lyrics

Can I tell you all my secrets
I am doubting myself
Big surprise, I bet you did not expect anything else
Because I am feeling just a little overwhelmed at the moment
And I don't know if I can handle all this well-up of emotion
While I'm feeling like a fuck up, right down to my bones
Like I'll self-sabotage and just end up alone
So I wake up, suffer through my routines
But what's the point of living if you can't live free
She says I've got so much more to look forward to
But the only thing that gets my heart beating is playing my guitar in these back rooms
So you can stay with me just for tonight, but I am not like them
I make no promises if I can't get the fuck out of my head
So you can stay with me just for tonight, but I have got all of these hang-ups
And I can't fix them
I'm sorry I made it your problem
Can I tell you all my secrets
I am drowning myself
Beneath the waves of this turbulent self-pity
Oh, and it keeps me sea sick
It keeps me heartsick
It beats me black and blue until my face will match the colors of the Atlantic
She says I've got so much left waiting above the waves
But the only thing that keeps me grounded, keeps me sane
Is the tug of my guitar strings
I don't think that I was ever meant to stick around for long
I'll burn out so brightly you'll be seeing stars when I am finally gone
You might think you're patient
You might think you're kind
I will wear you down
And you will leave me to die
