You'd Think I'd Miss You

It all seems so fast
You take a minute and all you have is in the past
Those memories so sweet
Wished you'd held longer but now you know that their lost
You'd think I'd miss you now you're gone
But I'm so numb I can't be sad
I've pushed the hurt away for so long
I've kept the thoughts, turned them black
Cause if I knew how to cope
Maybe tonight wouldn't leave me so alone
If I knew how to sleep
Maybe the nightmares would show me what I've known
Even if I can feel we're gone
It doesn't change the emptiness inside
I'm lost
I remember the laughs we had and
The nights we spent forever talking here
But if you've forgotten that's just
Fine by me it doesn’t cut that deep
You'd think I'd miss you now you're gone
But I'm so numb I can't be sad
I've pushed the hurt away for so long
It's kept away thoughts, turned them black
Cause if I knew how to cope
Maybe tonight wouldn't leave me so alone
And If I knew how to sleep
Maybe the nightmares would show me what I've known
Even if I can feel we're gone
It doesn't change the emptiness inside
I'm lost
You'd think I'd miss you now you're gone
But I'm so numb I can't be sad
I've pushed the love away for so long
I can feel my heart crack
I've locked it up, turned it black
Cause if I knew how to cope
Maybe tonight wouldn't leave me so alone
And If I knew how to sleep
Maybe the nightmares would show me what I've known
Even if I could feel we're gone
It doesn't change the emptiness inside
I'm lost

I know your heart's been broken
Been pickin' up pieces day by day
And it's these little shards that cut me
That have me so afraid
And when you said I love you
It's not crazy for me to assume
That you meant forever
Not we would end this soon
Well you were the reason for this flutter in my chest
You are the reason why I sleep less and less
Well all I have to say is
Twist that knife in baby
Twist that knife
Twist that knife in baby
Twist that knife
And watch me bleed
Don't look away
Because it's all I have left for you to take
I said I love you
You couldn't pretend to give a shit
I could see it all over
See that weight fall off your shoulders
Now all I can see is my blood
All of these memories
But god knows why it makes me happy
'Cause it was You who did this to me
Well you were the reason for this beating in my chest
You are the reason why I sleep less and less
Well all I have to say is
Twist that knife in baby
Twist that knife
Twist that knife in baby
Twist that knife
And watch me bleed
Don't look away
Because it's all I have left for you to take
Twist that knife in baby
Twist that knife
Just twist that knife in baby
Twist that knife
Twist that knife in baby
Twist that knife
Twist that knife in baby
(Twist that knife)
And watch me bleed
Don't look away
'Cause it's all I have left for you to take
Twist that knife in baby
Twist that knife
Twist that knife in baby
(Twist that knife)
I know your hearts been broken
Now so has mine
I can feel all of the cracks
And all of the time
You said that I was your last dead end
Well I'm lost in thoughts
They say I'll be over all this soon
I'm betting I'm not

You were always loving
You were my light
You were always caring
But you weren’t always right
I know that I am no saint
And I wish you'd have loved the same
'Cause there in the moment I heard all of your lines
But out of these feelings I've scarred from all of the lies
Now that I am looking back
I can see your true colors
And even if I think of you each day
I know that I can't love her
'Cause I don't miss it all
Here I am
I felt alone
I felt alive
I felt used
I felt as if you didn't see the love I shared
'Cause my love was simple
It pours one direction
I know that you were insecure
Though rough, unrefined
I did not think I could take anymore
'Cause there in the moment I heard all of the lines
But out of these feelings I've scarred from all the lies
Now that I am looking back
I can see your true colors
And even if I think of you each day
I know that I can't love her
'Cause I don't miss it all
Here I am
I can't stop hearing your voice
Your words are knives
It's not like I have a choice
And even with your tears
Your actions stain the love we held so dear
I tried
But I know you did too
But if you really wanted me to rethink
You have to learn the world is not just for you
'Cause my love was simple
It pours one direction
I know that you were insecure
Though rough, unrefined
I did not think I could take anymore

They say my life lacks context there's no way to work this out
But if you had a better voice maybe you'd be found
Even if you were taller, stronger shit your out of luck
'Cause boy you ain’t cool
Good luck gettin’ fucked
Now I am taking the time to cross my T's and dot
I should have known that anime shows will never mean more than
Girls or the game
Let's face the fact kid that no one will know your name
Well on this path I'll persevere towards fame
'Cause I've been told that “you are no one”
“You are the lesser I am the better”
I've been told that “you are nobody”
“You wish you could be me,
A manlier version of YOU”
Really what does that mean?
To be a man, to be a part of this scene
I guess that excludes the feelings and tunes I sing
'Cause damn you if you like Debussy
Damn you if you like to sing
Damn you if you like to treat a girl right
'Cause I've been told that “you are no one”
“You are the lesser I am the better”
I've been told that “you are nobody”
“You wish you could be me
A manlier version of YOU”
Let's get the story straight
If I do not fit in your box
I'm a loser, I'm a queer, I'm a prick, or I'm weird
If only you could see yourself
An empty vessel projecting some shit self-image
But here's the bitter pill to swallow about you
No one gives a fuck
'Cause after to you my story continues and I grow up, I get fucked
And I lose myself just like anyone else
But that's just the tragedy of life
It all takes some time
Now I've grown older
I am someone
I should have known better
Never the lesser
I've grown older
I am somebody
Only one who can be be me
A nerdier version of YOU!
