[Verse 1]
People are temporary
They come and go like the seasons
And then they hurt you
And you’re stuck in a pit
Of loneliness
With notes and photographs
From the past
Reminding you of what they did
When all you gave was commitment
But it doesn’t matter, does it?
[Chorus]
It’s always just me
When everybody ups and leaves
I put my heart out on my sleeve
I’m alone, but no I can’t stop breathing
Push until I think I’ve lost all meaning
I keep
Believing in false hope and deceit
How could I stand on broken feet?
I must be just solitary
[Verse 2]
I lie awake at night wondering what I did wrong
Why did it go wrong?
But I must go on
Because it’s not the end of the world
There’s an empty feeling in my chest like a void ready to consume
Everything I love
I must let go of my grudge
[Chorus]
It’s always just me
When everybody ups and leaves
I put my heart out on my sleeve
I’m alone, but no I can’t stop breathing
Push until I think I’ve lost all meaning
I keep
Believing in false hope and deceit
How could I stand on broken feet?
I must be just solitary
[Bridge]
I can’t keep trusting people
When all they do is lie
I’ve tried to run away from who I am inside
But it doesn’t fucking work
I can’t believe I’ve let this happen again
I guess I’m not as strong as I wish I’d be
[Chorus]
It’s always just me
When everybody ups and leaves
I put my heart out on my sleeve
I’m alone, but no I can’t stop breathing
Push until I think I’ve lost all meaning
I keep
Believing in false hope and deceit
How could I stand on broken feet?
I must be just solitary
[Outro Bridge]
I can’t keep trusting people
When all they do is lie
I’ve tried to run away from who I am inside
But it doesn’t fucking work
I can’t believe I’ve let this happen again
I guess I’m not as strong as I wish I’d be
