lyrics

I’m a broken clock I’m only right this once
Let me let you down give you what you want
You turn off your head time to float away
One thing you’ve taught me well how to waste a day

I am the way out that you don’t need
I am your lesson in learning how to leave

Everything I do is bound to seem
Utterly destructive and fucked up
Because I'm terrified
To be me

You can hold me up I’m your neon sign
Flickering off and on I’m just your dying light
You are my mirage fading in and out
Show me that you're real be my oasis now

I am the way out that you don’t need
I am your lesson in learning how to leave

Everything I do is bound to seem
Utterly destructive and fucked up
Because I'm terrified
To be me

If you count the days and watch them disappear
You can hide your head but just don’t hide it here

Everything I do is bound to seem
Utterly destructive and fucked up
Because I'm terrified
To be me

I’m so terrified just to be me
If I could just be me
