[Verse 1]
You've got to run, winter is comin' 'round
And everyone you know will let you down
Oh, love's just a feelin'
You hide it like a murder weapon
Do anything you can to stop them findin' out
[Pre-Chorus]
But what if it's not true?
It was just a violence that was done to you
It's hard to watch
Self-sabotage
[Chorus]
But I always come back
I've got no self-respect
I've got it comin', like a double bet
(But it's feelin' like it never will)
[Verse 2]
Sun goin' down
Too many times to count
I'm feelin' up the empty space with any sound
But it's a welcome distraction
Pushin' on a cold detachment
'Cause everyone we know will let us down
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, what if it's not true?
It's just a story we're addicted to
It's hard to watch
Self-sabotage
[Chorus]
(Mmm) But I always come back
I've got no self-respect
I said I'd move on, but I haven't yet
[Bridge]
I saw you on a story clearin' out your clothes
Weaponizin' independence like it's somethin' you chose
You'd be cryin' on my shoulder, but I'm just a ghost, you know
[Outro]
It's a welcome distraction (Come back)
Pushin' on a cold detachment (You'd be cryin' on my shoulder)
I tried to move on, but I haven't yet
It's feelin' like I never will
