I tried to fall asleep But I couldn't let you leave My head is filled with memories Unwinding...torturing me I walked the room for answers Searching underneath my skin Punched a wall but it didn't hurt as much As it did when you left me I can't love any more I can't love me like you did Does it even make sense? To say I want you out of my head But I want you back in my chest And when you reach me Even if it's in another place, another time I don't know what you'll say when you see me I don't know if you'll remember my eyes I let go of the drugs But I couldn't forget about us My armours up more than ever Cause I have no one to protect me now I moved away to the coast Tried to find some calmness in the waves I still sit in bed for hours Wondering if your life's better without me Chorus You couldn't handle the pressure Of walking in my shoes And when it came down to it I guess you had nothing to lose (Except me. Except me.) You're so stuck in your ways Why the **** did I think you'd change? I guess I need to grow some spine To get you off my mind.

Back in my chest - An Ode to You
I tried to fall asleep But I couldn't let you leave My head is filled with memories Unwinding...torturing me I walked the room for answers Searching underneath my skin Punched a wall but it didn't hurt as much As it did when you left me I can't love any more I can't love me like you did Does it even make sense? To say I want you out of my head But I want you back in my chest And when you reach me Even if it's in another place, another time I don't know what you'll say when you see me I don't know if you'll remember my eyes I let go of the drugs But I couldn't forget about us My armours up more than ever Cause I have no one to protect me now I moved away to the coast Tried to find some calmness in the waves I still sit in bed for hours Wondering if your life's better without me Chorus You couldn't handle the pressure Of walking in my shoes And when it came down to it I guess you had nothing to lose (Except me. Except me.) You're so stuck in your ways Why the **** did I think you'd change? I guess I need to grow some spine To get you off my mind.
