This isn’t happening
My world isn’t collapsing
You’re not really gone
Our love was strong
I’m just panicking
This isn’t real (No, no, no, no)
I don’t know what my deal is
Maybe this is just another one of all my mental illnesses
Oh
You take away the light
Something isn’t right
You’re out of sight but in my mind
Angels don’t belong in hell, no
You and I were doing well (Or so I thought)
Carve a knife right through me
Leave me fending for myself
But angels don't belong in hell
You must have misspoke
Or maybe this is just a fucked up joke
You already told your friends about it? (Fuck)
God, I'm gonna choke
Just the other day you told me I was yours forever
Soon you'll be back and we'll just laugh
About when we were severed
You take away the light
Something isn’t right
You’re out of sight but in my mind
Angels don’t belong in hell, no
You and I were doing well (Or so I thought)
Carve a knife right through me
Leave me fending for myself
But angels don't belong in hell

Oh, you’re such a good guy when you wanna be
But when you don’t, feels like you’re my enemy
You go out to the bar
Makes you feel like a star
Better pray that I don’t see your car
‘Cause I keep having dreams I’m gonna key it
You’ll call the cops, but I didn’t mean it
It’s interesting that I was the whore
What’d my friends find your tinder profile for?
I must admit, I tried to ignore it
But sometimes you just fucking bored me
Man, you fucking blew it, babe
You’re looking like a loser, babe
But you play stupid games, you win stupid prizes
So I guess you won
So take a second to admire all the work you’ve done
Don’t call me crying ‘cause I already did
And just save your tears ‘cause you’ll need them
‘Cause if one if thing that you said was true
Yeah, you’re right, I don’t deserve you
Yeah, you’re right, I don’t deserve you
You’re right! I don’t deserve you.
Yeah, you’re right, I don’t
Now I’m an evil little monster with my phasers set to kill
And I ain’t stopping running ’til I get my record deal
It’s unbelievable
It’s inconceivable
The man of my dreams is fucking unachievable
It’s like you’re hiding for me after every corner
And if you have a new girl, guess you’d better warn her
That your ex is crazy and a bitch
Wait, I just did it myself!
Guess I am really a snitch!
Man, you fucking blew it, babe
You’re looking like a loser, babe
But you play stupid games, you win stupid prizes
So I guess you won
So take a second to admire all the work you’ve done
Don’t call me crying ‘cause I already did
And just save your tears ‘cause you’ll need them
‘Cause if one if thing that you said was true
Yeah, you’re right, I don’t deserve you
Yeah, you’re right, I don’t deserve you
You’re right! I don’t deserve you.
Yeah, you’re right, I don’t deserve you
Yeah, you’re right, I don’t deserve you
You’re right! I don’t deserve you.
Yeah, you’re right, I don’t deserve you

I don’t wanna hold it in no more
It’s too fucking heavy
And yeah, I really wanna get better
I’m just not fucking ready
And I don’t really want this skin
‘Cause it remembers how you held it
But God knows I don’t wanna reach out to you
So I try to forget it
I’m left so empty never knowing what was real
I don’t know how to talk to you and I don’t know how to feel
So just hold me in the middle of the night
We can pretend that we’re lovers making up from a fight
And we can throw all of the pain love caused away
So just hold me in the middle of the night, so tight
Like a noose around my neck
If I won’t wake up by your side, I’d rather not wake up instead
How do I grieve the death of something I’m not sure was real?
Can’t say that I could blame you, but you made it hard to heal
‘Cause my best friend left me with no warning
Left a corpse and all the bugs are swarming
You know me, yeah you know me
So you know just how to choke me
It’s only when I’m still that I feel so heavy
I need your arms around me just to hold me steady
I’ve been taking pills at night to help me get some sleep
Because I only get to see you when you’re in my dreams
You knew so much about me
What I couldn’t heal
I don’t know how to talk to you
And I don’t know how to feel
So just hold me in the middle of the night
We can pretend that we’re lovers making up from a fight
And we can throw all of the pain love caused away
So just hold me in the middle of the night, so tight
Like a noose around my neck
If I won’t wake up by your side, I’d rather not wake up
So just hold me in the middle of the night
We can pretend that we’re lovers making up from a fight
And we can throw all of the pain love caused away
So just hold me in the middle of the night, so tight
Like a noose around my neck
If I won’t wake up by your side, I’d rather not wake up instead

If you really wanna leave, well, good luck where you go
Thanks for leaving me alone
And if you wanted to be free, I guess I needed the same
I hope we can remember love and forgive the pain
‘Cause I loved you more than I did myself
And you loved me more than I did as well
I won't blame you for leaving, we were under a spell
And waking up, it never goes down well
I am love, I am love
Lighter than the sky above
I am love, I have loved you
And I still do
I am love, I am love
Sky came falling from above
But I have love, I have love
So do you
We always do
Now that it’s time for us to go our own way
What else is there left to say?
I leave nothing left unsaid
I’m so annoying that way
But you know how I felt
The cards have been dealt
And with you, a piece of me stays
‘Cause I loved you more than I did myself
And you loved me more than I did as well
I won't blame you for leaving, we were under a spell
And waking up, it never goes down well
I am love, I am love
Lighter than the sky above
I am love, I have loved you
And I still do
I am love, I am love
Sky came falling from above
But I have love, I have love
So do you
We always do
You said it yourself
I am love, but you are love as well
I am love, I am love
Lighter than the sky above
I am love, I have loved you
And I still do
I am love, I am love
Sky came falling from above
But I have love, I have love
So do you
We always do
I am love, I am love
Lighter than the sky above
I am love, I have loved you
And I still do
I am love, I am love
Sky came falling from above
But I have love, I have love
So do you
We always do
