Staring Me Down
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.
You showed up at my door and it was past 10
I thought my God: What have you been drinking?
And you've never jumped so far off the ledge, till then
We played it safe until 17 in high school
Your addiction grew and you wanted to be cool
I was satisfied with nothing but the cold hard; truth
Scary place filled with, hateful faces
They're staring me down, staring me down, staring me down
Stop staring me down
Complicated, so overrated
Stop staring me down, staring me down, staring me down
Stop staring me down
You came inside, told me you were sorry
Couldn't invite, invite me to the party
Have you forgotten me? Have you lost your mind? (Have you lost your mind?)
When have I liked the kind of things that they do?
Messy, not me, I'm pretty sure that's all you
Go right ahead, throw it away, I'm fine (I'm fine)
Scary place filled with, hateful faces
They're staring me down, staring me down, staring me down
Stop staring me down
Complicated, so overrated
Stop staring me down, staring me down, staring me down
Stop staring me down
So frustrated I, can't escape it
They're staring me down, staring me down, staring me down
Stop staring me down
Gonna break 'cause I, just can't take it
They're staring me down, staring me down
[?] staring me down, [?] staring me down
And you tell me you don't want me to be sad
I'm just broken, this is normal, this ain't bad
Excusing all your actions like they never hurt
Really, it's the worst
And you tell me you don't want me to forget
All the good times like the moment that we met
But we were kids, we were young, it was fun
This isn't fun (this isn't fun)
Scary place filled with (yeah) hateful faces (yeah)
They're staring me down, staring me down (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Staring me down, stop staring me down (staring me down)
Complicated, so overrated
Stop staring me down, staring me down, staring me down
Stop staring me down
Staring me, staring me, staring me down
Staring me, staring me, staring me down
Staring me, staring me, staring me down
Staring me down
Staring me, staring me, staring me down
Staring me, staring me, staring me down
Staring me, staring me, staring me down
Staring me down
