You said once you were sad
but I don't believe you
you're too simple in the head
for pain to please you
there are days when you feel good
and days when you feel nothing at all
But there is no inbetween
and is that, that kills you
cause you don't know what to do
which page to thumb through
on all of my failures I've leaned
but with God as my witness I fall
Oh one by one they watch me fall apart
oh one by one they watch me fall apart
Forgive me I'm empty
and I want you to need me
your assurance is a game
and I'm always bluffing
like suburban nature
I've separated myself
But I'll kindly grit my teeth
swallow and bury it
unsettled and anxious
and now I'm careless
and I'm swearing in my sleep
cursing at the day, as it goes by
Oh one by one they watch me fall apart
oh one by one they watch me fall apart
