The Summer Contradicts My Existence

Scratch out the doubt again
Nails regret they met the skin
Bending
Breaking
Just like you

Sitting up unsettled
Until the candles burn out
You're such a mess when I'm not around

Tell me how you feel without making a sound

Your eyes are dry
But they're dying to drown
Your guard is faltering
But you won't let it down
[You're such a mess when I'm not around]
This is a testament to your guilty conscience
I wish I could've seen this for myself
[You're a mess]

No matter your excuse
I know I'm keeping you up at night
Am I getting under your skin?
[Scratch me out]

If you're looking for answers
I know where they sleep
[You'll live your life never knowing why I...]
Between where you are and where you ought to be
[You'll live your life never knowing why I left]

And I'm lost again
[These headlights will never find you]

You lose again, you lose again, you lose yourself...
