lyrics

Inconsistent tendencies
Caught writing on the walls again
Just so you can plainly see
How quickly I digress
Another bad habit
I keep telling myself to kick
No, this is not another guilt trip
But darling I feel so sick

This is not another one of those narcissistic love songs
I won't leave your name up on the wall
This could be something that I finally feel proud of
Instead of a waste of time

Misguided dependencies
I'm face down on the floor again
I still don't know if you can see
Without you I'm a mess
A lot of bad habits
I'm trying to let go
Just so you can plainly see
How I forced myself to grow

This is not another one of those narcissistic love songs
I won't leave your name up on the wall
This could be something that I finally feel proud of
Instead of a waste of time
