lyrics

Seems like you finally lost your interest,

if in fact you had any at the start

Some day I’ll find someone to give me a chance,

But until then I’ll find something to numb my heart

Seems like I finally

lost the nerve

to tell you how I feel

to tell myself it’s real

it’s just that hard for me

And this sounds just like

every other song

So go ahead and sing along

Pretending nothing’s ever wrong

It’s what I plan to do

It’s a shame this gives me so much anxiety,

Otherwise I’d let it sleep for my whole life

But alas I gotta put my heart on the cutting board,

Give you the knife and force you to choose
