I'm not the perfect boy you knew
I can't excuse all the stupid things I do
I'm not afraid to be a pawn in your game

Years ago I learned that you're all the same
The things you put in my head
The expectations that I never met

I think I'll go instead
The way you turned your head
As if you felt regret

And is this over yet
I won't come home tonight
If I lose my mind

I won't give up the fight
I'll stay by your side
And I'm a mess cause all the things you put in my head

For expectations that I never met
I think I'll go instead
The way you turned your head

As if you felt my pain
But you are all the same
