Am I supposed to-
Am I supposed to be this numb?
When you get teary eyes
I get jealous of the shimmer
Am I supposed to-
Am I supposed to ask around?
Can I buy “happy” at the market
And wear it into town, no
I tie my hands to my pockets
I fiddle with the space between the fabric
You never know, you never know
When you’re gonna need the room
Waiting for my seeds to bloom
I think I missed a spring or two
Oh, no no no
There I go
There I go
There I go, there I go
I’m so sorry my dear
Don’t leave me open
All my palaces are made of memories
And you know me too well
There’s no pretending
And oh, I can’t stand it when you get me
Cause one day you’ll find out
I’m just a fake
Fell to pieces when I packed my things up
Boy oh boy sometimes it takes a trip to pick your feet up
Agony it tucks me in the night and keeps the light on
I don’t know why I get up at 9 am to feed you
I stuff my cash inside my boots,
and my heart inside my clutch
Then asked the universe to join me for some Double Dutch
And you waved to me
as I was leaving but I didn’t see it
It took me too many years to see the damage I’d done
I wish I could show emotions like them other kids do
I know you hate it when I hate me
but there’s much to improve
I’ll stay for a couple minutes but I gotta go soon
Cause if I don’t then I’ll happily forget how to move
There I go
There I go
There I go, there I go
I’m so sorry my dear
There I go
(please, forgive me now)
There I go
(please, forgive me now)
There I go, there I go
I’m so sorry my dear
Don’t leave me open
All my palaces are made of memories
And you know me too well
There’s no pretending
And oh, I can’t stand it when you get me
Cause one day you’ll find out
Cause one day you’ll find out
