She finds, comfort in hiding places
Comfort in their faces
In her eyes, nothing there is hidden
Everything is mine
She lies, and everyone believes her
She is just a friend
And her mind, is such an open vessel
You won't find me there
Darling if you should ever go
I'll wait, I'll wait here all alone
Darling can't you see that this good?
Darling can't you see that this is?
She cries when everyone is with her
So she belongs to them
If she died it would all be over
No one would pretend

I don't need a hero
And if I did then it wouldn't be you
Said how do I know, well I've been here before
And I won't do it again for you
And if you fall
Don't fall at my feet
I hope you fall
But don't fall at my feet
You asked me if I needed a hand
You got involved in everything I do
It's obvious to me that that's to
Fill a need in you
I can't stand the way you're looking at me
Don't try to tell me that you're only trying to be friendly
I can't stand the way you're looking at me
Don't try to tell me, don't try to tell me
Tell yourself a story
You can sell it to half the world
But good fucking luck selling it to me
With all the lessons that I have learned

My Mistake

If it's a mistake
Then it's mine to make
Like the others
Did I tell you there were other ones?
If this thing could be stopped
Before it gets too late
Don't you think that I would do that,
Save us both the heartbreak?
Should I say?
I know I can't feel like I do
Should I say?
Can you think about it
'Cos you knock me out
And I think about you every day now
I think about you only every day

I couldn't see the moon
That night I left from Oslo
Now I'm floating and I'm feeling more adrift
They say crazy bathed in moonlight was a gift though
And now the stars are mocking me for losing it
You gave me something solid that I could hold onto
And every day I know I'm losing my grip
Get a grip you said, I wish that I knew how to
But every time I think I've got something, I slip
You're mad at me, oh you're
Mad at me again
You're mad at me, oh you're
Always mad at me
The sea is making it harder to take
Being away from you
I break every time I say goodbye
I break anew
So I am drunk and I don't know how I'm feeling
I gave up on being sober tonight
There was too much in my head, I couldn't stand it
I don't feel good, I don't feel safe, I don't feel right
And my breakfast is an existential crisis
My lunch is pretty much a full meltdown
But by dinnertime I'm begging for an exit
Wish you would take me home with you where I'd be calm

Played you that love song
Don't take it personally
I'm like yeah,
So you think I'm falling for you
You got me wrong
I know you'd rather have me crawling
You think that your charms are unforgettable
But I think meeting you was most regrettable
Don't tell me that it's alright
'Cos I'm not going anywhere
And you can go to hell
You'll never see me crawling
Don't tell me who I am, try to take my credibility
'Cos I know who you are, and I'm not buying

You build me and then smash me into little pieces
You tried to rip me up and start again
Will I ever know if I was right or wrong?
I feel my heart is good although it's not that strong
I never liked you anyway
I'll make my own family
And you'll never get to hurt me
I remember you kicked me out that Christmas Eve
You slapped me so hard that it made my nose bleed
And I still came home
I needed care but all I felt was really scared and I'd be hiding in my room
Growing up is never easy I know
But it's hard for queers
Sad and lonely if you're hiding
Or worse if you dared to share
But you shouldn't have to live that way
And lie about yourself in every word you say
It's ok 'cos one day you will go
And those fuckers will be people that are fuckers that you used to know

Sometimes it's hard to know
What other people have to go through
What's the point when you know best?
Everyone's hysterical and over-emotional
Everyone is always such a mess
Cis white noise
Please not again
Cis white boys
Everywhere I go
People never realise
It's hard for men's activists
Exposing misandry all the time
Being overprivileged and always being right
What's the use in trying when you never have to fight?
Everywhere I go
Please not again

Sometimes I wish we'd never met
So I could go to bed not wondering if you're home yet
'Cos I'm tired, so tired from filling up my time
So I have to don't have to face the emptiness that's my insides
You say I've got it all I don't need you, well here's the truth
Yeah there's girls but baby none of them are quite like you
As far as I'm concerned the rest of them can join the queue
'Cos it's you, all I've ever really wanted is you
Never thought it'd end this way with you
Why can't it be forever me and you
I never thought it'd end this way with you
Now it's time to go I close my eyes and count to ten
Takes all I've got not to beg you not to leave me again
Don't wanna act the fool, be desperately uncool
And cause a scene declaring my undying love for you
You never thought it'd end this way
I never thought it'd end this way
With you
Sometimes I wish we'd never met

Five in your hand two up your sleeve
Why's what you're missing always just so far out of reach?
Wise in your head dumb in your speech
Safety in silence, wishing sleep would come more easily
You wrote some rules you thought would stick
I tried to follow but I'm never very good at it
Theirs is a way you can't connect
Flirting with expectations only worsens with regret
You can't feel low
When you're so numb
If I fall apart right here will you forgive me?
All I ever wanted was some room to breathe
Fall down on my knees and make a final plea
Things should never be so easy, oh so easy
I found a pet the other day
A hate, a habit, a way to dull the pain
Irate's a game you like to play
I play along, a game for fools I never could escape
