I knew a girl when I was younger
She was like the constellations
She was so complex, her many revelations
She had a hunger to be known
A hunger to forget
Now she's in an asylum sucking on a cigarette

Oh, oh, oh

You say that you love me
But I don't really know why
Last week you were in Indiana
Much more focused on your high
But I've learned to love the feeling
Of your head between my thighs
So I guess we'll just say that
We're together till we die

But I don't really like to live this way
Worrying 'bout others lives
Every single fucking day
No I don't really want to live like this
I have finally come to realize
Who I lost inside of it

You tell me to stay
You tell me to stay
But I just say go away
I just say go away
He tells me to stay
He tells me to stay
Please don't go away
Please don't go away

How do I explain it?
These thoughts inside my head
No one's ever listened
I just bottle up instead
Nobody believes me
What if I was dead?
I bet that in a month
They'd just forget all about it

I don't really know what else to say
Anxiety holds me captive
Every single fucking day
But I'm trying not to look down at my wrist
And mistake my complexion
For another empty canvas

You tell me to stay
You tell me to stay
But I just say go away
I just say go away
He tells me to stay
He tells me to stay
Please don't go away
Please don't go away
You tell me to stay
You tell me to stay
But I just say go away
I just say go away
He tells me to stay
He tells me to stay
Please don't go away
Please don't go away
