Welcome to a world, full of misery and self loathing
Is this pain even for real, cos I don’t know where I’m going
Now there’s nothing wrong with this provincial life
But I can hardly breathe stuck in this 9 to 5
I can’t get by barely getting by, there’s gotta be more to everything
I know that I won’t be alone, cos every time
I take a step in the wrong direction, you’ll be giving me the love I need to
Break these chains that shackle me to these thoughts
This anxiety ain’t killing me, cos you're giving my heart a reason to beat.
It isn't all plain sailing, no the panic doesn't pass
The doctor is my dealer and the lithium works fast
This ain't how I'd thought it'd be, but it makes more sense now that you're with me
My worries are there I can cope with that, but now that you're my everything
I know that I won’t be alone, cos every time
I take a step in the wrong direction, you’ll be giving me the love I need to
Break these chains that shackle me to these thoughts
This anxiety ain’t killing me, cos you're giving my heart a reason to beat.
Never thought I'd be here, but I am and I've tried
And it's hard to be clear, now it's time to realise
I'm not alone
So with you by my side, I can get through the night
Once I've opened my eyes, and finally realised
I'm not alone
I know that I won’t be alone, cos every time
I take a step in the wrong direction, you’ll be giving me the love I need to
Break these chains that shackle me to these thoughts
This anxiety ain’t killing me, cos you're giving my heart a reason to beat.
(I'm not alone, I'm not alone, I'm not alone, I'm not alone)
Never thought I'd be here, but I am and I've tried
And it's hard to be clear, now it's time to realise
I'm not alone
So with you by my side, I can get through the night
Once I've opened my eyes, and finally realised
I'm not alone

You think it’s gone unnoticed
You think it’s going to plan
What you don’t know is that your fading into black
This obscurity, well it doesn’t suit me
Just part of the background
Yeah we're falling through the cracks
You don’t owe me, it’s just courtesy
But I’ve been here from the start
When you, forget my name
Cos it’s always stayed the same and it’s never changing
Forget my name
Cos I don’t think I can take this any longer
So I guess I’m going
Am I overreacting or are you just the worst
These things in life can get me down, it's like I'm I fucking cursed
You see right through me, but still it stays the same
I don’t know how hard it is have I only myself to blame
Can’t you remember, I’ve told you a thousand times
And I see it in your eyes
When you, forget my name
Cos it’s always stayed the same and it’s never changing
Forget my name
Cos I don’t think I can take this any longer
So I guess I’m going
It's like you don't even try, it's not that hard just to get it right
And it's bringing me down, it's like you don't even know me
It's like I'm not even here
When you, forget my name
Cos it’s always stayed the same and it’s never changing
Forget my name
Cos I don’t think I can take this any longer
So I guess I’m going
I’m going
I’m going
I’m going, I’m going

Give it up, give it up, give it up, I know you won't
It was never gonna be a surprise
It was more like a matter of time before you fucked things up again
This is what you wanted, this is what you chose
Then you departed for pastures new
They say practice what you preach, that don't mean anything to me
You won't like what I've got to say, but I'll say it anyway
When you're down on your luck, don't you dare come running back to us
Think about what you've done
When you're out of girls to fuck, don't you dare come running back to us
When your broken hearted, at an all time low
If you think we'll take you back again, don't you dare come running
When your status changed to single for the hundredth thousandth time
There be no hero story, just another fucking lie
We've been down this road too many times before
Now the wound is open, I hope it's fucking sore
They say that times supposed to heal, and it's hard to know what's real
I do not like the games we play, we'll play them anyway
When you're down on your luck, don't you dare come running back to us
Think about what you've done
When you're out of girls to fuck, don't you dare come running back to us
When your broken hearted, at an all time low
If you think we'll take you back again, don't you dare come running
When you're down on your luck, don't you dare come running back to us
Think about what you've done
When you're out of girls to fuck, don't you dare come running back to us
When your broken hearted, at an all time low
If you think we'll take you back again, don't you dare come running

SCREW YOU MARY-LOU

I've got this great idea, to get me outta here
Ooh
But I can't follow through, on all these things I do
At all
I've heard it once or twice before and I'll hear it once again
I'm a catastrophe but I believe I will be till the bitter end
I've got to find a way, tomorrow's another day
Ooh
To get my head on straight, and just forget the hate
I hold
It may be circumstantial but, it happens all the time
I'm a catastrophe but I believe
I will be til the day I die
Walking down an avenue, and straying from the line
I missed the opportunities, now I need to find the time
I'm a catastrophe, and I believe
Eventually I'll get things right

What’s to say things in life should always have a plan
We’ll find a way, and take it day by day
And if it doesn't seem so easy, I won't take this lying down
I never thought about it, I couldn't even dream to doubt it
All along I knew we were on to a good thing
So what's changed, are we standing in our way
And if we falter then we falter, together
If this is it, then I don't know why we bothered
If this is it, you took everything there's nothing left to take
And time stood still and we smashed it all to pieces
We fell from grace, and I don't care, If this is it
I remember when it started
I found you broken hearted , long ago
It seems the past doesn’t matter
Well things changed, we'll get back to where we came
We are meant to be together forever
If this is it, then I don't know why we bothered
If this is it, you took everything there's nothing left to take
And time stood still and we smashed it all to pieces
We fell from grace, and I don't care, If this is it
If this is it, then I don't know why we bothered
If this is it, you took everything there's nothing left to take
And time stood still and we smashed it all to pieces
We fell from grace, and I don't care, If this is it
If this is it
If this is it

Give it up, give it up, give it up, I know you won't
It was never gonna be a surprise
It was more like a matter of time before you f***** things up again
