I have an obsession
One unlike yours of your complexion
But there’s a blemish beneath my skull that I must conceal
Before it takes me in like a tidal wave
And I feel like everyone around me is sailing
Along the smoothest seas but I’m failing
To find a way to the shore
I guess I’m sinking here all alone in your absence
Why does everything that I touch turn to stone?
I’ll keep my hands to myself in the future to keep you closer to me
I guess I’m sinking here all alone in your absence
And oh did I mention
I’m calloused from every kind of rejection
But there’s a blemish beneath my skull that I still feel
I’m sure it makes me out to be something that I’m not
Now all the people that surround me are saying:
“We miss the way you were”
Now I’m praying that I can find my way to the shore
I’ll turn the past to the present alone in your absence
I have an obsession
One unlike yours of your complexion
But there’s a blemish beneath my skull that I must conceal
Before it takes me in like a tidal wave
I’m sinking here all alone in your absence
