Lyrics
I'm Not Ready
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
One more distraction to keep me from
Laying in the wake of my own destruction
And I want you to believe that I'm better, but I'm not
So it's one more temporary love illusion
I don't wanna get in too deep
Making these promises I won't keep
Just hold myself down steady and hope I can sleep
When I dive into another bed
I'm so empty inside, filling up on regret
If I'm honest with myself, I'm still terrified at best
I tried, I'll admit, I'm not ready, I'm not ready
Saw my reflection in someone
Couldn't see you coming but I lost two hours
And I wanted to believe I was better off back then
But there's a crack in the mirror and it left me broken
I don't wanna get in too deep
Making these promises I won't keep
Just hold myself down steady and hope I can sleep
When I dive into another bed
I'm so empty inside, filling up on regret
If I'm honest with myself, I'm still terrified at best
I tried, I'll admit, I'm not ready, I'm not ready
I'm not ready, I'm not ready, I'm not ready
I'm not ready, I'm not ready
I don't wanna get in too deep
Making these promises I won't keep
Just hold myself down steady and hope I can sleep
When I dive into another bed
I'm so empty inside, filling up on regret
If I'm honest with myself, I'm still terrified at best
I tried, I'll admit, I'm not ready, I'm not ready
I'm not ready, I'm not ready, I'm not ready
I'm not ready, oh, I'm not ready
