People always tell you "love yourself"
That's redundant, I'm the only one that does it
So I sarcastically explain to them
That everything I want out of love is unobtainium
Strangers love to see the pain I'm in
When they tell me that they want me on that stage again
We're all users, addicts
Selfish, wounded, justifying madness
The way I've aged never lets you see my mind's scars
Life in slow motion, when I write it's like a time warp
Back and forth, slow it down
Fast forward, there's enough time to go around
Your voice says it, I don't even need the words
So when they hit my eardrums, it won't even hurt
It's just a means to confirm how
Reluctance in the end was wise, seeing how it turned out
Alcoholic, but my gin is just platonic
When lovedrunk, I feel my impaired judgment's neurotic
I'm running loops, but refuse to jump through a hoop
And frankly I don't understand what love has got to do with it
We just give each other's vibes
Taking what we can while we enrich each other's lies
My eyes are like salt flats, too dry to cry
Those shed tears from past years became crystallized
Repeating patterns, till it's groundhog day again
All these crushes left me crushed within my naked skin
These brown eyes that you are gazing in
Are tired of being told what I desire is unobtainium
