i got you under my skin
i got you so far deep
i can’t let anyone else in
you got me wrapped around your finger
and I’m just the broken heart singer
the waste case in a band
who keeps trying to understand
whats right and whats wrong
whats the next lyric to the next song
who else am i forced to smile to
what am i even doing this for
know what i want
know what i need
know who i am
know I’m not who i used to be
yet here you are
not here with me
so close yet so far
could just hop in my car
and ruin everything i got going for me
beautiful home, perfect life, fairy tale fantasy
but that passion drives me wild
that one i felt from the second i saw you
luring me in like a nymph to her prey
you had my heart and soul the very first day
i saw you before you saw me
and i knew that you were the one i had to meet
your voice, your smile, those eyes
every word you’d ever say i'd memorize each day
your flaws consumed me
your lies confused me
how could something so real be so fake
when all i wanted was for my heart to never break
which was another one of your empty promises
i love you means nothing if theres no one to help you recover
doctor doctor can you save me from this hell
from this 2 year itch i can't seem to scratch
from the bottom of the pit i buried myself in
stitch by stitch and the pain is just as fresh
fresh as the flesh that gets older as the day grows younger
as if it happened yesterday
i can’t forget
you seep through my veins
like water through wood work
you make me a super hero
you make me a negative zero
who am i
who is this girl
she once knew herself
but **** you make me out of this world
you get me going
you got me crying
you got me smiling
then why does this feel like dying
what would you say to me
probably wouldn’t care
would it be the most bittersweet truth
my baby gone free would it be the sweetest lie you'd ever say
whatever it was that stole you away from loving all of me
