lyrics

i could swear i saw your face in the window
staring back at me
high off speculation i let myself be deceived
i know youre out of town now and it stings like jealousy
but the guilt would almost kill me

that dream is dead
thank god for that

youre only here
in the back of my mind
(you dont remember)
youre only here when i think im terrified
(you dont remember)

the bastardiser the patron saint
of disconnetction of feel no shame
you leave a wreck unconfined
even if you're gone ill be okay
so cut to the chase
oo
please cut to the chase

and years and years
I can't drive with my eyes wide
what if I was blind?
I can't drive with my eyes open
I guess
I might aswell close them

it takes more time than i thought to love yourself
it takes way more time than i thought to love yourself
it takes more time than i thought to love yourself
it takes way more time than that for somebody else to say that they love you

i couldn't handle it when you left
i screamed at the wall until my last breath
my heart blowing up in a split second
universe wide infinite heat death
i know my efforts were futile
but it still hurts so i guess ill
turn my failed relationships to a song
so my inner feelings can be prolonged

its all gonna end on a sour note
every word that i wrote
wont mean anything, anything now
get some excersize!
get some sleep at night
but when you're mad at me is the end of times
(and im maddddd)
and im mad at you all the other times

it takes more time than i thought to love yourself (I’ve been learning how to find peace)
it takes way more time than i thought to love yourself (cuz I know you moved on without me)
it takes more time than i thought to love yourself (I’ve been learning how to find peace)
it takes more time than that for somebody else to say that they love you (cuz I know you moved on without me)

I've been learning how to find peace
cuz I know you moved on without me
I've been learning how to find peace
cuz I know you moved on without me
