Stop staring at me
Please?
I swore to you that it would all come out ok
And I never wanted to say this,
But I was so wrong
I AM so wrong
There's no way to hide it anymore
I can't do this...
I suppose it'd be best if I just told you the truth
I'm cold-hearted, I'm ignorant and I couldn't handle it
I fell off
I'm back in
And I can't see the bottom yet but I'm sure it's coming
I know you told me you'd leave me
But I can't do this by myself
Throw me back in rehab, drag me to meetings but please
Please just don't throw me away
