lyrics

Sometimes it’s good to be awake, or nice to be alive.
But I’ve almost overdosed on disappointment so. Many. times.
Why do people make everything over before it’s begun?
I want to escape this town.

But not today, because you smiled at me.
Not tomorrow, I want to see the world through your eyes.
They don’t need me here, would I better in the ground?
Aren’t we all falling apart?
I would be honoured to be punched by you.

I knew you were gone before you even left.
The skin on my hands is bleeding from trying to. Hold. on.
Surely I’m too young to have hands that shake.
Surely I’m too old to be refusing what I should take.
I want to escape this hell.

But not today, because you smiled at me.
Not tomorrow, I want to see the world through your eyes.
They don’t need me here, would I better in the ground?
Aren’t we all falling apart?
I would be honoured to be punched by you.
You know I would be honoured to be punched by you.
Yeahhh I would be honoured to be cried over, by you.

I hope one day, you miss me.
Or, when the waters cold, you’ll think of me.
I hope one day, you cry over me.
Or, when the waters cold,I hope you’ll think of me.
