Forgive me for the lies I've told I know my story's getting old But please just hear me out one last time Long before I'd popped pills and swam in unpaid bills There was a time I felt something Other than restlessness at night Mother grabbed me by the hair Threw me down the stairs
Picked me up and cried Stayed till I was breathing right A fucking household prisoner There were scratches on my neck Bruises on my arms Living check to check Driving broken cars I gave up counting sheep Cus I never fucking sleep
Packing my things and I'm moving away Forget you ever even knew who I was And when you hear my voice or see my face I hope it gives a decent taste Of what it's like to feel so unloved I had my first suicidal thoughts when I was 13 years old Was taken by the idea of an escape
I saw my best friends father beat his mother till she couldn't walk He grabbed my head and said you better not talk Family members die Choosing different sides Some I'll never see Split my family tree right in half And you're okay with that
Packing my things and I'm moving away Forget you ever even knew who I was And when you hear my voice or see my face I hope it gives a decent taste Of what it's like to feel so unloved It's been a minute since we last spoke And when you call my phone I think I always choke There just aint a whole lot left for me to say Looking back now I can say I'm proud Blending with the crowd Maybe I'm more human than you'd like to believe
And I'm packing my things and I'm moving away Forget you ever even knew who I was And when you hear my voice or see my face I hope it gives a decent taste Of what it's like to feel so unloved
