lyrics

Hey buddy
This isn't the end
I hope I might get to see you again
You gave me armor the first time
I wore it like it was mine
We were warm

We were alive
My friend
I tried to find a reason to pretend
That it would feel like the last time
When I was yours and you were mine
Was I wrong?

I don't deserve this
I was so earnest
You gave me a purpose
I came to the surface
thought it was worth it

Hey lover

Don't cry

I promise you there's nothing in my eyes

You showed me what I was missing

And now I'm just here wishing I was blind

I don't deserve this
I was so earnest
You gave me a purpose
It was a little too perfect
I came to the surface
Thought it was worth it
Baby don’t do this
Don’t put me through this

You don’t deserve me

I need you
But you won’t want me
I can’t breathe
Take your hands off me
I feel used
But you won’t touch me
I need you
I can’t breathe
