I took a pill I went to sleep for the first time in weeks
You kept me up with all your manic energy
I had to go, I put it out just like a cigarette
I'd never be a girl you like or trust or you respect
When I think about it, I wanna punch the wall
When I remember everything I wonder if I'll always feel small
You look for me in the broken gla** and Styrofoam
Painting yourself as a sufferer, a stepping stone
You work real hard to herd your friends into a gallery
Narcissistic injury disguised as masterpiece
I just want to run, yeah, I don't want to fight
I just want to sing my songs and sleep through the night
Under your criticism, self loathing and all your doubt
I held you up above myself trying to ride it out
I got lost in your rendition of reality
All my offering rendered boring hyperbole
Couldn't see the sun from there, just a beam
I thought it would never come out
Yeah, I had to
Couldn't see the sun from there, just a beam
I thought it would never come out
Yeah, I had to leave
