Verse 1

Is it okay to burn all the elegies

Is it okay to remember what it's like to be me

Cause I'm dying on the inside

But I look happy on the other side


Pre chorus

Does it even look like I'm fine

My scarlet cheeks hide my azure life

Do I understand that you're not mine

Just trying to be relieved from the scripted lines


Chorus

If they call me cat

Do you think that I could snap

Or if they start trying to slowly kill me

That I'll just stop and drop everything

Choking on air that I'm not breathing

Leaving hope tied to a thread

Now I can't get out of bed

Is it okay to burn all the elegies

Is it okay to remember what it's like to be me


Verse 2

They say, "Does she turn her head and look away

From the danger she caused in her dreary ways"

A promise that was never the intention

I don't even want the attention


Pre chorus

What if my muses wouldn't interfere

Should I be allowed to cry in fear

Your only form is my rusting tears

You should be relieved that I don't respond clear


Chorus

If they call me cat

Do you think that I could snap

Or if they start trying to slowly kill me

That I'll just stop and drop everything

Choking on air that I'm not breathing

Leaving hope tied to a thread

Now I can't get out of bed

Is it okay to burn all the elegies

Is it okay to remember what it's like to be me

Cause I'm dying on the inside

But I look happy on the other side


Bridge

I make sure that fire doesn't seep through my smile

They think that I can last a while

But my baby would know that I don't reply that quickly

And the fooled mastermind is on the other side of the cliff

I wanna bury into him

But that's hard to do if you're hiding quite sickly

I'll never see that end of time

I don't know what to do until I just cry

Because I always want to cry until there's nothing left

But they tell me that I'm fine I just need to prospect

Never knew what it felt like dying inside

But looking happy on the other side


Chorus

If they call me cat

Do you think that I could snap

Or if they start trying to slowly kill me

That I'll just stop and drop everything

Choking on air that I'm not breathing

Leaving hope tied to a thread

Now I can't get out of bed

Is it okay to burn all the elegies

Is it okay to remember what it's like to be me


Outro

I want to know what its like to be me again

I doubt that would happen if I don't hit send
