I have messed up, always stressed out
maximise the failure that I am
Can't wake up, oh just shut up,
attention is all that I can have
No freedom, want some freedom,
tell me if im going a little too fast
for you to understand me, dont control me
im not afraid of me
Im feeling empty but im not hollow
only frozen up inside
and im not crazy and im not stupid
i know you laugh and roll you eyes
Torture mixed with pleasure
only foolish ones can tell the difference
I am under pressure, dont you lecture me
and dont you raise you fists
Cause im not useless, im a fighter
I can do this hear and now
so please dont lose it, its not worth it
I will calm the storm for now
Cause im not useless, im a fighter
I can do this hear and now
so please dont lose it, its not worth it
I will calm the storm for now
ahhh....
Im feeling empty but im not hollow

and im not crazy and im not stupid
i know you laugh and roll you eyes
Cause im not useless, im a fighter

so please dont lose it, its not worth it
I will calm the storm for now

Im here so come get me
no tears tonight if you let me in
no conversation or expectations
no need to fight its just you and I
you'll see that im not a stranger
cause ill be all that you want me to be
so dont turn away at least not today
theres so much more that i need to say
like ill miss you when youre gone
I wanna kiss you all night long
like ill miss you when youre gone
I wanna kiss you all night long
Who said that we should be hiding
Its not fair this is not who we are
It gets complicated and overated
Lets skip the facts sit back and relax
Dont cry it may never happen
Thats why youve just got to let it be
Dont turn away you need to be brave
theres so much more i need to say
like ill miss you when youre gone
I wanna kiss you all night long
like ill miss you when youre gone
I wanna kiss you all night long
im gonna miss you when youre gone
I wanna kiss you all night long
im gonna miss you when youre gone
I wanna kiss you all night long
