MFEO - PT. 3: I CAN’T BREATHE

i fell in love so young
so sure it would save me
i fell for this girl
thought my parents would hate me
but it happened too fast
for them to change me
and even if they tried
i would’ve said to chase me
and even if they cried
they knew that they made me

but they learned to love her
and learned to see me
i’m their own child so
they had to believe me
i said, “don’t you know
how much she needs me?”
left out the part about
how good she’d tease me
always cross her heart
and promise to please me

she used to take my words and twist them
she used to take my hands and kiss them
she used to take me, take all of me
she used to take me home

and she’s the one who
stayed in my head all day
who bought me a bass
and taught me to play
she’s the one who showed me
“something in the way”
who told me to be myself
it would all be okay
but i guess it turns out
nothing gold can stay

she fell in love so bad
so sure it would save her
she fell for some girl
thought i’d always hate her
but it happened too fast
for me to change her
and even if she tried
i would’ve said don’t chase her
and even if i cry
if i can’t replace her

she used to take my words and twist them
she used to take my hands and kiss them
she used to take me, take all of me
she used to take me home

she used to take my words and twist them
she used to take my hands and kiss them
she used to take me, take all of me
she used to take me home

EMO BREAKDOWN HERE (musically and personally)
