I can't sleep without you tucked up against me, By my side. But if you were to ask me how I'm, I'd tell you I'm getting by, I'm getting by. And it's like walking through a door, Just to find another It's like watching you look for me, Through my window, In a house, with no door. I can't seem to be able to watch you mourn me. I want to tell you, You can't be both the killer and the ambulance, But you're. And it's just not fair, It's just not fair. And It's like I'm the bullet you want to dodge, But you can't go far without the adrenaline. It's like how every flower will wilt for you, If you love it hard enough, And boy, did we love I can't seem to be able to make use of this leftover me, So in case you're looking for an empty, secluded place to rest from your inconsistencies, Use my heart, But you can't, you won't A heart so tamed is no fun, My heart is no fun, anymore. And it's like the whole world is spinning, Tauntingly, obliviously, But I can't move, Unless it's to write, Somewhere along the line, Expression was the only time I was away from self destruction And it's sad, but kind of funny, don't you agree? It's sad, but kind of funny. I can't seem to tuck out the disappointments, Hiding in the wrinkles of my skin, Or be a disappointment dressed up in This messed up body, But if you were to pass me by, I'd compile all the burnt out suns inside of my heart, To give you one last warm smile, Anything to convince you That I'm getting by, I'm getting by.

I'm getting by just fine
