Lyrics[]
You have this way of making me say the opposite of everything I mean
I kiss you, I hug you, but I could not feel less connected from you
I know I wanted all this in the beginning, I really tried
I know I caught you at a not-so-happy time of your life
My dreams are bigger than your junky pride
I don't quite fit the part of she who loses everything and falls into insanity
The sunbeams mean nothing if you can't find the light shining in one thing
I know I wanted all this in the beginning, I really tried
I know I caught you at a not-so-happy time of your life
My dreams are bigger than your junky pride
It's fine if you're hateful as long as, all in all, you remain grateful
It made me nervous to know you didn't like me, I really tried
The way I'm feeling in this moment, it can't last my whole life
My dreams are bigger than your junky pride
