You told me, "Never mind"
And now you're leaving me alone
You shoved your blame in my mouth
And you know this isn't the way
We play at being grown-ups, but
Like a dog lost in the middle of the city
Rip the skin off my vertebrae
But tell me why you don't wanna talk to me anymore
The city burns in your eyes
'Cause being here with you is like losing my dignity
Letting ourselves go, to me, is the same as f*cking
It's throwing ourselves into the fire without lighting it
Between the two of us I don't know who'll win
Nobody ever told us how to cry at our age
You gave me your best
And I held them so tight
While I was learning to fall
Rip the skin off my vertebrae
But tell me why you don't wanna talk to me anymore
The city burns in your eyes
'Cause being here with you is like losing my dignity
Letting ourselves go, to me, is the same as f*cking
It's throwing ourselves into the fire without lighting it
Between the two of us I don't know who'll win
Nobody ever told us how to cry at our age
It's raining salt inside your room
Nobody ever told us, no
Nobody ever told us, no
We look for fixes for anxiety
Rip the skin off my vertebrae
But tell me why you don't wanna talk to me anymore
Between the two of us I don't know who'll win
Nobody ever told us how to laugh at our age
