Fucked up
beyond a wreck
plastered to my bed
nothing daring in me that's left
just a mutinous protest
Story's old to the critical fold*
You've heard it all before
nothing new; just this little girl
and this is how I'm feeling...
Knuckle bashed insomniac
my head takes another spin
never been aware of the fact
eventual moral switch
story's old to the critical fold
You've been sold it all before
laid bare from all I own
and nothing, I could care less...
You stay up all night
to keep my eyes dry
You stay up all night
to make it easy when I cry
You stay up all night
to stop me feeling like I could die
You stay up all night
to be by my side...
Fucked up
beyond repair
only fragments in my head
too numb to find a piece of myself
leave it to someone else
guilty of treating apathy
with the greatest empathy
Given up I'm completely carefree
Yo I couldn't give a fuck less
You stay up all night
to keep my eyes dry
You stay up all night
to make it easy when I cry
You stay up all night
to stop me feeling like I could die
You stay up all night
to be by my side...
and my head feels tight
like it's gonna burst
and my lungs feel light
so tired of getting burnt...
and my head feels tight
like it's gonna burst
and my lungs feel light
You'll stay up all night
to keep my eyes dry
You'll stay up all night
to make it easy when I cry
You'll stay up all night
stop me feeling like I could die
You stay up all night
to be by my side...
You stay up all night
We all get a little fucked up sometimes
You stay up all night
to make it easy when we cry
Stay up all night
We all get a little fucked up sometimes
We all need someone to make it easy
When we cry
don't let me go
don't let me go
don't let me go...
Stay by my side
