lyrics

if you were here now i think that you'd say
nothing at all or you'd just walk away
maybe you'd tell me that i'm just the worst
but don't you know that just hurts
why can't anyone just act like their age
something i never thought that i would say
but i'm so lonely and trying to cope
and it all just feels like a joke to me now

what's the point of acting cool and being called great
when you can't get out of bed for the same reasons
it's fine just surviving but i'd rather be dying, oh
won't you please talk to me?

if you were clear now i think that you'd say
something about how you're feeling today
ways that i've hurt you and ways that i'm wrong
maybe you'd write a good song about it
but you'd rather hide in your hedonist hole
and pout like a baby with no self control
now i've got these cravings, i'm feeling so used
god, i made a mistake when i told you i loved you

what's the point of acting cool and being called great
when you can't get out of bed for the same reasons
it's fine just surviving but i'd rather be dying, oh
won't you please talk to me?

i'm sick of these verses i write about you
and all of the immature things that you do
i wish i could say it all straight to your face
you know i usually don't act this way
but you've got me stuck in this frustrating place
there's no more fighting, just silence all day
and though i feel gaslit, abandoned, and used
i'd be lying if i said i didn't miss you
