In the back of my mind
I can't shake the thought that
I'm causing you pain
And that one day you'll find that
You could do better, you do better than me
(You could do better, you could do better than me)
That's the last thing I want for you and me
I see a future, we are happy
A home with picket fences
A perfect sanctuary
Car on the drive, roses around the door
A vision that I cherish, each day a little more
I'm petrified
That I'll let this slip
That my mistakes will lead us to the end of this
That every day
I tighten my grip
Heightens my fears
That we're on a sinking, on a sinking
With every waking moment
I worry that I'll screw this up
That I can't have nice things
Cause I know I'm not good enough
You could do better, you could do better than me
(You could do better, you could do better than me)
One day you'll be aware of this reality
I see a future, we are happy
But I know that it's merely my fantasy
These dreams I hold in the back of my mind
A glimmer of happiness, I know I'll never find
I'm petrified
That I'll let this slip
That my mistakes will lead us to the end of this
That every day
I tighten my grip
Heightens my fears
That we're on a sinking, on a sinking
I know this time,
We'll be fine, We'll be just fine
I know this time,
We'll be fine, We'll be just fine
I know this time,
We'll be fine, We'll be just fine
I know this time,
We'll be, We'll be just fine
I'm petrified
That I'll let this slip
That my mistakes will lead us to the end of this
That every day
I tighten my grip
Heightens my fears
That we're on a sinking, on a sinking
