Can’t you see it’s me not everything that’s in our way Can’t you see it’s me not everything in our way
You can build yourself an empire then watch it all fall apart That’s basically what I do With everything because I’m so inconsistent can’t finish anything through Because I always feel so incompetent
Can’t you see it’s me not everything in our way Explosive anger, stuttered words, attacking anxiety That’s what I have to show for all my years of existence Yeah and also a collection of broken hearts, college, a series of indifferent jobs, and books filled with sappy love and sad poems Can’t you see it’s me not everything in our way
They say it’s always calm before the storm Well that’s what it’s like when you first meet me I’m smooth, calm, and cool Then time goes by and I turn into a hurricane My personality pours onto you like lightning, wind, and rain The anger, insults, and mood swings hits you all at once And like the speed of lightning you don’t know what hit you
So I’ll take my collection of broken hearts and whatever knowledge I got out of college, and my experiences of indifferent jobs, and books filled with sappy love and sad poems And I’ll just go No Don’t try to stop me Because if this were to work it would have been worked And we’re standing still, we’re not going anywhere Because it would be hard to move on with us still here…together And I know it’s hard and it hurts, but our love wasn’t meant to last forever I’m not being rude, mean, or insensitive This misery and torment we put ourselves through when we’re together isn’t what is should be like to live Can’t you see it’s not everything that’s in our way Can’t you see it’s me not everything in our way
