Like flowers at your mother's wedding The brighter shade of blue I'm clutching to the way I felt about you Before the bags under my eyes From tossing in my bed at night Now I know I never really loved you Your parents tied a knot just like the one that's in my chest The home they built is broken from the silence You hold the past over your head Drowning in your self regret I'll never be enough for what you wanted I'll never know what's good for me So go ahead, tear me down 'Cause I am weaker than I seem Yeah it's cool 'cause I can smile and pretend That you're not wasting space in my head The record keeps on skipping all the songs you love the most You're everything I hate about the east coast You always said that I would be a warmth that you could hold You are only just a blanket that always left my feet cold I'll never know what's good for me So go ahead, tear me down 'Cause I am weaker than I seem Yeah it's cool 'cause I can smile and pretend That you're not wasting space in my head Now I'm shaking, you're drying in the breeze I've been trying to wash the memories out of our sheets I'll never know what's good for me So go ahead, tear me down 'Cause I am weaker than I seem Yeah it's cool 'cause I can smile and pretend That you're not wasting space in my head You're not a waste of space to me Like flowers at your father's wedding The brightest shade of blue I'm questioning the way I feel about you
