Somebody Who People Leave

[Verse 1]
I'm preparing for the worst
Convince myself that that's what I deserve
You didn't help the cause
Remind my head of how it hurt before
Exhibit their familiar flaws

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I always feel like I'm a test drive
Like you'll try me out and then change your mind
No matter how far we fly
I'm looking for pain so it's pain that I find
I'm always ready for you leaving
Just like water through my fingers feels
No matter how hard you try
I just hide, I don't want you to see me

[Chorus 1]
Daughters do not always heal
If they taught us how to truly bleed
Will you install a new belief
That I'm not just somebody, somebody
Who people leave?

[Verse 2]
I stay in yesterdays of aching
Prepare myself for my future forsaking
But I don't wanna live that way
Don't wanna mourn you every day
To make it easier in case you go away

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I don't hold a claim on you, be free
You say you know, but you don't want to be
I need you to be patient with me
While I grow, too, and know you won't hurt me

[Chorus 1]
Daughters do not always heal
If they taught us how to truly bleed
Will you install a new belief
That I'm not just somebody, somebody
Who people leave?
Now love feels just the same as grief
It stains the glass through which I see
Will you install a new belief
That I'm not just somebody, somebody
Who people leave?

[Bridge]
Holding you
Is having somebody who is something to lose, yeah
Oh, and if you leave
At least I'll feel just for tonight just what it's like for somebody to choose me

[Chorus 2]
Daughters do not always heal
If they taught us how to truly bleed
Will you install a new belief
That I'm not just somebody, somebody
Who people leave?
I think you could be all I need
To tear these tainted cells right out of me
Will you install a new belief
That I'm not just somebody, somebody
Who people leave?
