[Verse 1]
You can't save me
But I can drag you down
I'm all talk, baby
With every line scripted
By the most gifted writers
I'm a stack full of lies and handful of charm;
I have less reflection than a ghost in the mirror
So tell me again what you see in me
Synonymous with what you fear
Though I attempt to be the opposite
I'm a cinder block hanging by your heel
We will never fall in love
I can't even love myself
I'm not good for your health
You don't seem to understand
I hope you find
What you're looking for
Cause' darling I'm just not your type
There's nothing I can do to make this worth your time
My perfect fairytale
Has turned into dust
In the palm of my heart
Just like everything else does
[Chorus]
I'm so conflicted it waters me down
My life's a mess you don't want any part in
You can do better-
You can do better-
You can do better than me
[Verse 2]
Patience:
It hasn't been your friend
You need to learn to let me go
Before my poison sinks too deep
We have no promises to keep
Are your starry eyes too bright to see the truth:
That I'm nothing that you need
[Chorus]
I'm so conflicted it waters me down
My life's a mess you don't want any part in
You can do better-
You can do better-
You can do better than me
[Verse 3]
You miss me again
Well what did you forget
To cry on my shoulder
Or the warmth of my bed?
You miss me again
Well what did you forget
To cry on my shoulder
Or the warmth of my bed?
I should be an afterthought
In your pretty little head
I should be an afterthought
In your pretty little head
You can't save me
But I can drag you down
You won't save me
And I will drag you down
