[Verse 1]
If you find some time
Come down from your balcony
I'll be in the corner by the trashcans
These streetlamps light up our tragedy
Please hold your tongue right now cause I can't
[Chorus 1]
I hope you find someone who cares to keep you
'Cause I don't have the time to still be see-through
To you
[Verse 2]
I'll take the stares from your relatives
Your friends will tell you what you need to hear
The hurt you feel?
Call it relative
You strung me out for seven years
[Bridge]
No, I won't say it's over
And you don't love yourself
We just might be hopeless
So I came to wish you well
If I won't say it's over
And you don't love yourself
Then we just might be hopeless
So I came to wish you well
[Chorus 2]
Well, I hope you find someone who cares to keeps you
'Cause I don't have the time to still be see-through
I hope you find someone who cares to keep you
'Cause I don't have the time to still be see-through
'Cause you don't love yourself
[Outro]
I won't say it's over
But you don't love yourself
