I know that this is all you've known
For all of it's worth
For all your life
And that's just how it is
Crotchet me a voodoo doll
This time I decide
If I win
Or if I get to lose
Painful, but that's just how it is when you lose yourself
In someone else
But what do I know?
Strangely, it all seemed to stop right after I left
And back home, every house starts losing space
Drawers ran through, choices made

Oh my God, I thought about it for a minute then stopped
Fucking myself over won't get me any further
Looks like I did nothing but talk a lot
(Talk a lot!)
Like I said, the thought was hanging on the back of my head
And the city's hero turned his back in the end
The end, there was no saving left

You know that you can't fix the cold in the wintertime
You know that even if you pull the strings you flatline

But nothing matters like it does when I'm near you
And nothing matters like it does when I'm there
And nothing matters like it does when I'm near you
And nothing matters like it does

I know how it feels when giving up
Part of you pays back
Everyone had someone tell them that they're not enough
You took it and laughed
Riding on a promise, you won't ever say so
You threw out your microphone, took the bus and went home
Now I get the feeling it's some kind of syndrome
You said that you hated it, why didn't you say so?

Why didn't you say? Why didn't you say so?
There's nothing else I would've said
(I tried!)
