Haunted House

I don’t mind

wasting away with you until the end of time,

but I should let you know I’m a haunted house sometimes

I will let you in, but you’ll want out sometimes

I will let you in

All I’ve gotta do is try, but I can’t

Find a way to make it fine, but I can’t

Fake a smile, I’m alright I’ll pretend

All I’ve gotta do is try, but I can’t

Now I sink

The walls are closing in, the roof is crumbling

but I can hardly move, I just watch and think

I’m who got me in, I’ll get me out I think

I’m who got me in

All I’ve gotta do is try, but I can’t

Find a way to make it fine, but I can’t

Fake a smile, I’m alright I’ll pretend

All I’ve gotta do is try, but I can’t

It happened long ago

Wires crossed in my head

They said leave it alone

It’ll pass, they said

But I needed more than they thought I did

Seventeen years old, I was only a kid

Can’t tell if I’ve changed, since I never really quit

filling my brain with all this hurtful shit

Can I feel okay in my own skin?

I just wanted to feel loved, but never did

All I’ve gotta do is try, but I can’t

Find a way to make it fine, but I can’t

Fake a smile, I’m alright I’ll pretend

All I’ve gotta do is try, but I can’t
