lyrics

Look at me as if I'm less
As if you're so perfect
You set me up to fall
And I knew you wouldn't catch me at all
So far so close
Enough to see the truth
Putting yourself first
As if I would ever harm you

You narcissist
I don't think I can take this
Suffocating
Buried in your greed
You narcissist
I don't think I can live this
Way that you have been before me
You're selfish and I hope you finally see
This is the life of being lonely

Walk away as if
It was my choices that drove you
Oh I know you can take it
Knowing that I have always cared about you
Use me as if
I meant nothing to you
Oh smile like nothing's wrong
But the lies and manipulation have said it all

You narcissist
I don't think I can take this
Suffocating
Buried in your greed
You narcissist
I don't think I can live this
Way you have been before me
You're selfish and I hope you finally see

This is the life of being lonely
Let go of the pain that we all see
Show yourself, it's okay
In this world we accept others or fall from grace
And I know you're hurting
But I'm powerless in your eyes
You know the truth
Will hurt more when you realize

You narcissist
I don't think I can take this
Suffocating
Buried in your greed
You narcissist
I don't think I can live this
Way that you have been before me
You're selfish and I hope you finally see
This is the life of being lonely

This is the life of being lonely

Lonely
