lyrics

sorry I keep flinching
but I'm really not used to this
it's all new and
old habits die hard I guess
this is usually the part where
someone tells me
they don't want me around

leave it to you to break the pattern
make me feel like my feelings matter
it's gonna hurt but not as much as the feeling that
time is running out

wake another day and put the past behind you
tell me to forget it but I'm not inclined to
pray nobody ever has to feel like I do

but at least we didn't ever leave the truth unspoken
petty consolation, leave the future open
what's it gonna take for me to not be broken

sorry that I'm like this
I'm just waiting for the trauma response to hit
didn't mean to make this your problem
you didn't sign up for the things it comes with

Sorry that I'm like this
the least I can do is stay silent
fade into the background
'til you decide if you want me around
