Chorus:

Not to sound dramatic

But the second that you burn me

I just crave your light that much more

What does that say about me?

Not to sound dramatic

But every time I'm up for air

I miss the darkness only found down there

What does that say about me?

Verse 1:

Maybe if my parents had been in love

I could recognize if that's what I'm in the presence of

But they didn't even love me and I was their child

So, of course I let you in when they're who you remind me of

Chorus:

Not to sound dramatic

But the second that you burn me

I just crave your light that much more

What does that say about me?

Not to sound dramatic

But every time I'm up for air

I miss the darkness only found down there

What does that say about me?

Verse 2:

Maybe if my reflection didn't make me quiver

I could drink normally, not drown out my liver

But I get ready without a mirror and don't like photos

I let you in cause you give me the same feeling as those

Chorus:

Not to sound dramatic

But the second that you burn me

I just crave your light that much more

What does that say about me?

Not to sound dramatic

But every time I'm up for air

I miss the darkness only found down there

What does that say about me?

Bridge:

I love you because I failed to fix me

And if you can fix me it won't hurt to breathe

Breakdown:

Not to sound dramatic

But I only date fixer-uppers

Fixing them distracts from my issues

What does that say about me?

Not to sound dramatic

But if we were healthy, it'd be less fun

Wouldn't heal, I'd just run

What does that say about me?

Chorus:

Not to sound dramatic

But the second that you burn me

I just crave your light that much more

What does that say about me?

Not to sound dramatic

But every time I'm up for air

I miss the darkness only found down there

What does that say about me?

Outro:

Not to sound dramatic, baby
