about

Power pop rocker .. man i laboured over the middle 8 bit .. wrote and rewrote more than a dozen times.. lyrics about "not feeling good enough" haha so universal

lyrics

Cry, cry a river of tears
You should feel how wet's my pillow
And my sheets are so damn cold
I swear I wear a shroud

You might've broke me
Broke me
And then you broke me
Broke me

There's dots in both my eyes
And the sound I make when standing
There's not a floorboard here that creaks
Anything you wanna tell me?

I let you break me
Break me
I've let you break me
Break me

Trickle down effect so each day starts and ends the same
My repertoire would be
White knuckles on the rails
Were it not for you
Were it not for you
Don't you dare stay angry
Don't you dare lose grace
Should've let more time pass
So the dots before my eyes
Turned into something pleasant
Or into something else

And when you passed me
You really passed me
You nearly broke me
Broke me

Can’t, can't you tell a joke
Can’t you tell when I was joking
With everyone suited up fine
I wear my favourite shadows

And then you passed me
You really passed me
And you broke me
You really broke me
You really broke me
