DESPERATE Lyrics by Monom

DONTLOOKATME

2019

Desperate imperfect decisions
Trying to hide everything I’ve been feeling
Breaking my heart like the glass under your shoe
If no one ever wanted me then why would you?
I guess I never could confess it
Standing in the cold as you text him
Another day another short goodbye
I hope I’ll see you in the next life

You were just another symptom
Of a burning brain just trying to escape
Pull me back into the coma
Of your skin, of your hеart
Everything lost within those arms

What am I to do? What am I to you?
Tell mе that you love me then you tell the truth
A deadly mix of convenience and self esteem issues

It’s always someone else besides you
Keep seeing my friends beside you
Holding your hand and avoiding eye contact
Peeling me back to reveal all the worst parts I have
The understatement of saying that I’m sad

Desperate imperfect decisions
Trying to hide everything I’ve been feeling
Breaking my heart like the glass under your shoe
If no one ever wanted me then why would you?
I guess I never could confess it
Standing in the cold as you text him
Another day another short goodbye
I hope I’ll see you in the next life

You were just another symptom
Of a burning brain just trying to escape
Pull me back into the coma
Of your skin, of your heart
Everything lost within those arms
