lyrics

There's a sign on my door
Saying "don't disturb"
Yet you're knocking
Despair on my face
That I cannot tell you the cause of
Always pinching myself
To make sure I'm awake
'Til I'm all sore
And biting my tongue so hard that I'm numb
To whatever I'm dying to say

Trust me, I'm listening
To every piece of advice
You're trying to give me
Why don't you just leave me
Why can't you see I'm a waste of your time?
If you're looking to make enemies
Believe me, you found just the place
I guess you must love misery
For otherwise you'd stop chasing it

I don't mind
The sense of you transforming me
You're in my dreams when I'm asleep
Take your time
No matter when, I'll let you in
To fill the void inside of me

There's only so many times
That you can get cut
Until there's a scar
You can't cover up
Can't you tell I've had enough?
When I hold you in my arms
I hope you won't become another one
I wish for once I could feel like an open book
Like I've got nothing to hide to feel understood
'Cause when I look in the mirror I tell myself
"You know you wish you could've been somebody else"

I don't mind
The sense of you transforming me
You're in my dreams when I'm asleep
Take your time
No matter when, I'll let you in
To fill the void inside of me

I swear if I were dead
I'd still be rolling in my grave
From all these thoughts and fears of losing you
That keep on haunting me
I lie awake beside you
'Cause I don't wanna waste a second
I haven't slept for days
I lie and fear what might happen
I've ruined things I loved before
Beaten my heavy head against the door
That's why I hold you so dearly
You mean so much more than the world to me
