LYRICS
You think you look better, I know you feel worse
If nothing were numb I think something would hurt
I've seen this before never thought you'd be her
You're young and your precious, your laugh is infectious,
Your heart's big as Texas, I don’t think you’re reckless
but maybe you strayed from the cross on your necklace
and now I feel selfish cause I miss my best friend
Still skipping breakfast and higher than Everest, alright
Slowing down the time, you can say you’re fine, but
This is too familiar, you know it runs in mine
I don’t want to fight, or overstep the line
but this is too familiar, you know it runs in mine
I’m sleeping all day for my baby
It's my cotton ball, putting up another wall way of escaping
Being awake isn't what I want to be,
I want to be asleep
Or I want to be a bird, or I want to be a tree
or be living by the sea
I don’t want to be a creep, I want to be asleep
Dreams would be nice but the nothing is fine for now
I should have more on my mind
I don’t mind but don’t say the word fine
I’m inanimate, I’m not a fan of it
Honestly, thinking that something is up
I know you're the same but i’m not gonna ask
What would i ask?
Slowing down the time, you can say you’re fine, but
This is too familiar, you know it runs in mine
I don’t want to fight, or overstep the line
but this is too familiar, you know it runs in mine
Like different things and picking on dreams
and picking on me when I tried picking you up,
Tried not giving you up, and when I die i’ll ask if i did enough
I pray that I live to know that I did
I pray for your weight and you wait for your freight
that you ordered online in a state
boxes arrived, I tried waking you up again
Doctors arrived, you were taking too much again
Somebody said I say thank you too much again
Get to school late and without any lunch again,
I’m not giving you up
No one’s half as pretty on the outside
Lies you tell are pretty much outright
And I hate it when we speak
Counting sheep, I’m tryna sleep
your heart's big as Texas
