[Verse 1]

Stare at me like I'm a disease

If you cut me then I will bleed

You won't ask, but I have to leave

Hold my tongue

I'll go quietly

[Pre-Chorus]

You don't know that I'm screaming inside

Sit alone when I turn out the light

[Chorus]

Tell me what I'm missin', but I really don't care

I was waitin' for the answer and it never got there

You meet me in the middle, but it doesn't feel fair

I could tell you that I'm chokin' but I never would dare

[Verse 2]

When I was young, I lived in dreams

The nineties ended ugly

I don't see myself in my heroes

Inside out I feel like a zero

[Pre-Chorus]

I'll never be good enough for myself

Splitting up here inside of my shell

[Chorus]

Tell me what I'm missin', but I really don't care

I was waitin' for the answer and it never got there

You meet me in the middle, but it doesn't feel fair

I could tell you that I'm chokin' but I never would dare

I don't dare

I don't dare

I don't dare

I don't dare
