Lyrics
[Intro]
Oooh, yeah
[Verse 1]
That is so far
Feels like I need you even when you’re close
When I opened up to you
On the things that you didn’t have to know
Did I catch you off guard?
When I let it out I nearly choked
Why am I thinking ’bout these things
That I should have left behind long ago?
[Chorus]
I’m not saying
That I’m broken and in need of some kind of help
Can I trust you when I can’t even trust myself?
I know that I’m the only one
Yeah, it goes on, and on, and on
Goes on and on
Yeah, it goes on, and on, and on
And on, and on, and on
[Verse 2]
See, there’s this feeling that I get
When you’re not around
And I try my best to run away
But it’s dragging me down
And I can’t escape
My friends have told me that these days
It’s like I’m not around, yeah
And I know that my mind’s playing tricks
Sayin’ you make a fool out of me
When you don’t
And I know you won’t
[Bridge]
I think I know why I’m like this
And she knows I don’t like how it feels when I’m alone
And I swear I could hear laughter on the phone
Baby, what time do you call this?
I guess that I’m paranoid from what happened before
From a long time ago, I know
I’m trying to be strong
[Verse 1]
Feels like I need you even when you’re close
When I opened up to you
All the things that you didn’t have to know
Did I catch you off guard?
When I let it out I nearly choked
Why am I thinking ’bout these things
That I should have left behind long ago?
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
I’m not saying
That I’m broken and in need of some kind of help
Can I trust you when I can’t even trust myself?
I know that I’m the only one
Yeah, it goes on, and on, and on
Goes on and on
Yeah, it goes on, and on, and on
And on, and on, and on
