[Verse 1]

Is this what I'm destined to be?

Maybe I am, maybe I’m not

You know I'm not listening, I’m picking my teeth

And I can’t hear your words but they’re dragging on

Yeah, they’re dragging on

[Chorus]

Are you the pains in my chest?

Are you this diet of cigarettes?

Are you the two hours sleep every night?

All my friends think I’m losing my mind

[Verse 2]

Another three hours sat in my car

I can look in your eyes, but I don't know where you are

But I can feel this collapse in my arms

If I took all the weight from my shoulders

I still wouldn't get very far

[Verse 3]

Things went swimmingly until we drowned

I guess what goes around comes around

Since I met you, I’ve not been myself

But I’m getting tired of being someone else

I’m getting tired of being someone else

I’m getting tired of being someone else

[Bridge]

You will speak, but I won't listen

The words, they blur and change position

Real life doesn't always make sense

As I fall in and out of past tense

[Chorus]

Are you the pains in my chest?

Are you this diet of cigarettes?

Are you the two hours sleep every night?

All my friends think I’m losing my mind

[Outro]

Things went swimmingly until we drowned

I guess what goes around comes around

Since I met you, I’ve not been myself

But I’m getting tired of being someone else
