Be Less Painful If You Shot Me
I can't
I'm too fucked up to love you
And too goddamned scared to let you love me
I wanted to want it
I want to care
I wanted to spark a fire inside me
That was never really there
I've been empty for years
You filled the void... or you tried
Inflated egos and baggage we carry
Shot it down before we even had a chance
You barely knew me
And I barely you
But we fit just like two puzzle pieces
So I thought it must be true
Now we both lie in our separate beds
Both broken and lonely inside
I'm sorry I wasn't who I said I was
I'm sorry I made you cry
I'm sorry
I'm too fucked up to love you
And too goddamned scared to let you love me
I wanted to want it
I want to care
I wanted to spark a fire inside me
That was never really there
I've been empty for years
You filled the void... or you tried
Inflated egos and baggage we carry
Shot it down before we even had a chance
You barely knew me
And I barely you
But we fit just like two puzzle pieces
So I thought it must be true
Now we both lie in our separate beds
Both broken and lonely inside
I'm sorry I wasn't who I said I was
I'm sorry I made you cry
I'm sorry
