lyrics

All my bags are by the door
Filled with thoughts like you don’t love me anymore
If you open any one
You’ll have to sort through all the wrongs I have made
No, I never wanted your eyes to fill up with tears
No, I only wanted goodbyes to never be heard

If you say we need some space
Or I should be out by the end of the week
I will have to find a place
That is big enough to fit all my shame
No, I never wanted your eyes to fill up with tears
No, I only wanted goodbyes to never be heard


I surprise myself
By the way I beat myself up
No opponent needed
I can do it all by myself

We could be happy if I learned to cope with all the trauma from my
Early life that made me so dependent on self medication
And the way I separate my normal life from future dreams I end up opting out of things that would have brought me happiness.

I surprise myself
By the way I beat myself up
No opponent needed
I can do it all by myself
