You said, "Lay your head down soft and slowly"
You said, "When we get to where we're going, you won't feel lonely"
So, I let the gravel rock me to sleep
With a heavy eyed horizon stretched out in front of me
I was only tryna satisfy
Your non-committal frame of mind
If I could trust you, I could trust myself
But you love me like I'm someone else
But I just woke up in a town
Where everyone else is in on the joke
And it's me
And I've been crying for help
Like everyone else
You bring here to leave
This impersonal hell
You made for me
♪
You're so generic, so please excuse me
If I feel like a cardboard cutout in your movie
So, I let you walk me scene through scene
And you tell me 'bout the loves you've lost
While you've been settling for me
I shouldn't have to wonder if it's me
When you talk about your sweet baby
And God forbid there's an emergency
Would I qualify as family?
But I just woke up in a town
Where everyone else is in on the joke
And it's me
And I've been crying for help
Like everyone else
You bring here to leave
This impersonal hell
You made for me
♪
And every character you demonized
Could have been another friend of mine
And every part of me you tried to hide
Was a piece that someone else might like
It took a while after you left me here
But the heavy eyed horizon cleared
And when she went and introduced herself
I learned you loved me like everybody else
So when you wake up in this town
Just know that everyone else
Is in on the joke, and it's you, baby
If this is our ground
Well, then we'll burn it down
Whenever we want to
Here's your personal hell
I made it just for you
