making the bed

want it so i got it

did it so it's done

another thing i ruined

i used to do for fun

another piece of plastic

i could just throw away

another conversation

with nothing good to say

i thought it so i said it

took it 'cause i can

another day pretending

i'm older than i am

another perfect moment

that doesn't feel like mine

another thing i forced to be a sign

well, sometimes i feel like i don't wanna be where i am

getting drunk at a club with my fair-weather friends

push away all the people who know me the best

but it's me who's been making the bed

i'm so tired of being the girl that i am

every good thing has turned into something i dread

and i'm playing the victim so well in my head

but it's me who's been making the bed

me who's been making the bed

pull the sheets over my head

making the bed

and every night i wake up

from this one recurring dream

i'm driving through the city

and the brakes go out on me

i can't stop at the red light

can't swerve off the road

i read somewhere it's 'cause my life feels so out of control

and i tell someone i love them

just as a distraction

they tell me that they love me

like i'm some tourist attraction

they're changing my machinery

and i just let it happen

i got the things I wanted

it's just not what i imagined

well, sometimes i feel like i don't wanna be where i am

getting drunk at a club with my fair-weather friends

push away all the people who know me the best

but it's me who's been making the bed

i'm so tired of being the girl that i am

every good thing has turned into something i dread

and i'm playing the victim so well in my head

but it's me who's been making the bed

me who's been making the bed

pull the sheets over my head

making the bed

sometimes i feel like i don't wanna be where i am

counting all of the beautiful things i regret

but it's me who's been making the bed

me who's been making the bed

pull the sheets over my head

making the bed, oh
