lyrics

I understand
You don't quite have it figured out
You're a mess
But little do you know that
I myself am constantly
Picking up the debris of everything
Falling down inside of me

Each blow gets harder
But I become more numb
The low feeling gets louder
But I keep having fun

Don't feel bad for me
Please don't feel bad for me

I get mad
I can't believe this happened again
And you confessed
Before I sank too deep but
I'm still stuck
Stuck between trying to escape
Or letting myself sink to the bottom

Each blow gets harder
But I become more numb
The low feeling gets louder
But I keep having fun

Don't feel bad for me
Please don't feel bad for me

And I can't tell you that I miss you
Your smile, your scent, your embrace
How special you made me feel
The way my heart breaks when I see your face
I can't tell you that I didn't mind
You wasting all my time
I can't tell you that I didn't mind
You wasting all of my time

Each blow gets harder
But I become more numb

Each blow gets harder
But I become more numb
The low feeling gets louder
But I keep having fun

I'm a mess
I don't know if I'll figure it out
But I understand
Why you've done this to me
