RIP MY HEART OUT OF MY CHEST
I DON'T WANT TO BE SOFT ANYMORE
I DON'T WANT TO LOVE YOU
DEEP, DEEP LIKE THE OCEAN
COVER MY SKIN IN SCAR TISSUE
AND DRAIN THE ROSEWATER FROM MY EYES
IT HURTS HURTS HURTS AND IM SO TIRED
TIRED OF CHASING MY TAIL AND CHASING YOU
FOR ANY SENSE OF COMPANIONSHIP, OF CONNECTION
BECAUSE I CAN'T STAND TO BE ALONE IN THIS WORLD
AND I THOUGHT MAYBE WE WERE SOMETHING GREAT
I WANT TO FORGET THE WAY MY SOUL LIGHTS UP WHEN I MAKE YOU LAUGH
I WANT TO BURN EVERY MEMORY
I WILL REMIND MYSELF THAT YOU DON'T NEED ME
I WILL TRY TO DO THE SAME
I WON'T SPARE A SECOND GLANCE TO THE STREETLIGHT
I WON'T EVER BE THIS RAW AGAIN
