[Part I]

[Intro]

Breathe

[Verse 1: Quare & Packtion]

I can feel my youth slowly slippin' away

I been thinkin' I don't really want that place anymore

I should just pack up and go

'Cause every time I don't ('cause every time you don't)

I get what I deserve (you get what you deserve)

[Chorus: Quare]

Why did I fight the tears? They were my best friend

I wanted Paris, but all I found was a dead end, oh

And I should let it go

However hard I try I never get it

I try to open up, they use it as a weapon, so

I guess they'll never know

[Verse 2: Packtion]

King sized bed of self-doubt

No, you won't make it out

I made it all for you

Pain will set you free

Whatever hurts is true

Remember when you gave up

That was you controlling all your dangers

All the world's a stage

The men and women merely players

[Bridge: Quare & Packtion]

I defy you, stars

I defy you, stars

I defy you, stars

I defy you, stars

[Chorus: Quare]

Why did I fight the tears? They were my best friend

I wanted Paris, but all I found was a dead end, oh

And I should let it go

However hard I try I never get it

I try to open up, they use it as a weapon, so

I guess they'll never know

[Segue: Quare]

I defy you, stars

⠀

[Part II]

[Verse 3: Quare]

The Eiffel tower in my mind falls to the ground

The bits and pieces wash away without a sound

I hardly have a choice, I'm all on my own now

[Chorus: Quare]

This is the way it has to be

I will never be happy

Cause I'm fully convinced it never works

And believe me, I've tried

Why did I believe you?

I was so naive to

I'll be right where you left me

And now my heart is empty

I put everything back together

But it's bled out and dried

I'm blind, you were see through

Wish I didn't need to

[Verse 4: Quare]

I've long lost all my innocence

And you know that you did that shit

So it says a lot

How you just don't care at all

Lately I been findin' it hard to pin the blame

I'm thinkin' that it was all a big mistake

Cause I might never do anything wrong

And still catch a stray

Now I've bent up my head

So it's never again

And my dreams are all dead

Even if they looked me in the face

I'd turn the other way

Too afraid of the pain

[Chorus: Quare]

This is the way it has to be

I will never be happy

Cause I'm fully convinced it never works

And believe me, I've tried

Why did I believe you?

I was so naive to

I'll be right where you left me

And now my heart is empty

I put everything back together

But it's bled out and dried

I'm blind, you were see through

Wish I didn't need to
