​i can’t seem to get you off my mind

[Verse 1]
I don't want to wake up safe and sound
I've got a million ghosts, they follow me around
'Cause it's safe to say that I hate this town
And everyone that I see, they act like fucking clowns
Well damn I lost my mind
Holding on to something I couldn't keep alive
Lights in my eyes died
Staring at what was never truly mine

[Chorus]
It's black and white for the millionth time
The colors stripped with the lies
I'll add the red with my bloodshot eyes
I swear I tried but you ruined my mind
The trust was pushed to the side
We couldn't rebuild the broken ties
Pretty eyes, how they always hypnotize
I can't take it anymore
I'm holding on to what's left of my pride
And I, don't want to fight
But I can't seem to get you off my mind

[Post-Chorus]
Here we go again
I know you've had it, my friends
I crashed my car through the fence
You know I'm wanting to feel alive
It's you and I
'Til the day that I die
I hope that day is tonight
'Cause I can't take anymore, I tried
(I can't take anymore, I tried)

[Verse 2]
I'm no kid in the limelight
I'm more like a deer in the headlights, love
Already been hit to the curbside
Lost so much blood, but I'm alright now
And I don't care if it feels like
Razors in my thighs
Soul's been damned, like wow
Hope that one day I can make it out and tell you 'bout the love I found
Here we go, I take the pain like a man
Bite my tongue 'til I can't
I do it all just to feel alive
And where'd you go
When I just needed a friend
Said you would wait till the end
But you couldn't even stay the night

[Chorus]
It's black and white for the millionth time
The colors stripped with the lies
I'll add the red with my bloodshot eyes
I swear I tried but you ruined my mind
The trust was pushed to the side
We couldn't rebuild the broken ties
Pretty eyes, how they always hypnotize
I can't take it anymore
I'm holding on to what's left of my pride
And I, don't want to fight
But I can't seem to get you off my mind

[Post-Chorus]
Here we go again
I know you've had it, my friends
I crashed my car through the fence
You know I'm wanting to feel alive
It's you and I
'Til the day that I die
I hope that day is tonight
'Cause I can't take anymore, I tried
