Chipped Tooth

You said:
This is not the first time that I let it get this bad
And this is not the first time that I have been this sad
This is not the first time at the end of my rope
And this is not the first time that I’ve given up all hope

You said:
This is not the first time that I have chipped a tooth
And this is not the first time that I walked away from you
This isn’t even close to being the biggest mistake that I have made
And believe me I believe you when you say it’s going to be okay

Because I know people who are not as strong as you
And I know people who did what I will not do
And I know more people who are gone or who have given up
Than I know people I can love or I can trust

You said:
I am broken I will only let you down
Everybody’s broken, they will only let you down
If that’s true then there’s nothing I can do to you
No need to worry, I am broken too

Everything’s going to be okay
Are the nicest words anyone can say
And it doesn’t really bother me
That they don’t mean anything

You said:
I don’t want to die before I am forgotten
I don’t want to die until no one knows my name
I will live longer than all of my enemies
I’m not leaving yet, don’t worry I am gonna stay

You said:
Everything is meaningless and nothing really matters
But you’d rather stick around to see how it falls apart

You said:
You could love me but only for a little while
This is not my first time breaking someone’s heart

I don’t want people to talk about me when I’m not around
I don’t want them to talk about me when I’m underground
I don’t want anybody putting flowers on my grave for me
I don’t want their concern, I don’t want their sympathy

I don’t want my funeral to be better than my birthday party
I don’t want my funeral to be better than my birthday party
I don’t want my funeral to be better than my birthday party
I don’t want my funeral to be better than my birthday party

Taste the coffee on your tongue
Roll your chair out in the sun
Just admit that you wouldn’t want to miss the thought
Of watching everything come undone
