[Verse 1]
I'm sorry I'm here again
I'm sorry I'm starting to wear again
Sorry you're tired of hearing it
I'm tired of carrying all the comparison
Sorry I'm feeling it
I'm sorry I suck at concealing it
If I were real with you, I'd tell it all
If you were real with me, you'd tell me you don't think I'm real at all
[Verse 2]
So who do you think you are?
Without me, you're nothing
Don't mean to cause no alarm
But I'm all you got
You treat me like you forgot how we got started
Now I'm discarded
Not sure what I did, but I don't belong here
If you don't need me, I'll hang back
But you're gonna feel me when the panic attacks
[Verse 3]
Yeah, remеmber that?
You and me, see, we go way back
Had your bеst interest, had your back
But you weren't interested in that
And I do my best to shut up
'Cause that's all you ever try to tell me when I come up
So I stay in the basement and try to hold the breakdowns back
But the basic math says this won't last
[Verse 4]
How much longer do you think you have
One of these days, you'll totally crash
You'll look at me like, "What just happened?"
That's what I've been trying to keep from happening
So I keep you happy
I keep you happy
'Til someday
Suddenly
Sadly
You're snapping
[Chorus]
Oh, and the tiniest crack
Spreads like fire
Shatters the glass
You try holding it back
But beggars can't choose when the panic attacks
[Verse 5]
I'm sorry I'm sensitive
But not really sorry 'cause you're just
Pretending it ain't what it is
Ain't what we are
Like you think you really got us this far
And that's all in spite of me
Really now?
And you wish I wasn't here
Really now?
Gave you the warnings, gave the signs
You just ignore me, pay me no mind
[Verse 6]
You left me no options
I gotta stop this
Can't have you thinking that you really got this
Not sabotaging
Just trying to caution you before you put us straight in the coffin
I'll make you nauseous
Feel like you lost it
Head to the basement
Make you my hostage
For so many years, I couldn't stop it
Now I'll make you feel like I feel
I promise
[Chorus]
Oh, and the tiniest crack
Spreads like fire
Shatters the glass
You try holding it back
But beggars can't choose when the panic attacks
Oh, and just the tiniest crack
Can break you into pieces just like that
There's no holding it back
'Cause beggars can't choose when the panic attacks
[Post-Chorus]
(I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry)
[Bridge]
I'm sorry I doubted you
Sorry I made you shut up
I couldn't face the truth
It scared me too much
So I kept you locked up
'Cause I didn't know
Know that I needed you
'Til you let me know
I'm sorry I doubted you
I'm sorry I made you shut up
I couldn't face the truth
'Cause it scared me too much
So I kept you locked up
'Cause I didn't know
Know that I needed you
But I do now
[Chorus]
Oh, and the tiniest crack
Spreads like fire
Shatters the glass
You try holding it back
But beggars can't choose when the panic attacks
Oh, and just the tiniest crack
Can break you into pieces just like that
There's no holding it back
'Cause beggars can't choose when the panic attacks
[Outro]
(I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry)
