I'm afraid oh what a waste
Just to want something you're too scared to chase
Couldn't hide so I run in place
Around the things I've been too scared to say
I bite my tongue until it bleeds again
Runs down my chin it's leaking through my pen
Got so close that I can taste
This bittersweet misery makes my stomach ache
So sick of myself give me some medicine
Save me from this hell I'm back in bed again
Could you love me like a sedative
And numb my pain numb me from everything
I'm ashamed more than I can take
Strangled by the weight of some of my old mistakes
Though I'm changed I can't turn the page
Does this story end with being saved
I'll fight this spell until my bitter end
I can't love myself so I loved you all instead
Got so close that I can taste
This bittersweet misery makes my stomach ache
So sick of myself give me some medicine
Save me from this hell I'm back in bed again
Could you love me like a sedative
And numb my pain numb me from everything
So sick of it all I don't know where it ends
Save me from my flaws my demons my old friends
Could you love me like a sedative
And numb my pain numb me from everything
If I could do it all again for the first time
I would get it right on the first try the first try
Swear I would give my life if the first time
I would get it right all my worst tries the first time
So sick of myself give me some medicine
Save me from this hell I'm back in bed again
Could you love me like a sedative
And numb my pain numb me from everything
So sick of it all I don't know where it ends
Save me from my flaws my demons my old friends
Could you love me like a sedative
And numb my pain numb me from everything
