Lyrics
Telling Myself
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.
So now's the time you change your mind
And decide that you don't want me
I never thought I'd be the fool
Crawling after someone
Now I'm crawling after you
You closed your eyes before
Just to try to ignore the open door in front of you
You took me by surprise
Like a fish of truth in the sea of lies
But you were the greatest lie of all
I don't deserve this
You don't deserve me
At least that's what I keep telling myself
Even though I cry sometimes
I know in the back of my mind I will be alright
Maybe even tomorrow
I never thought I'd be the fool
Looking for someone
Now I'm looking for someone new
I don't deserve this
You don't deserve me
At least that's what I keep telling myself
Oh, I don't deserve this
You don't deserve me
I can't be lonely forever
I don't deserve this
You don't deserve me
I can't be lonely forever
At least that's what I keep telling myself
Telling myself
Telling myself
At least that's what I keep telling myself
Telling myself
Telling myself
At least that's what I keep telling myself
