Aspartame by Bullpup Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Can someone remind me why I’m doing this at all
Fight off the monsters from under your bed
Meanwhile bloodsucking demons are gnawing at my soul
And I think that I’m better off dead

[Chorus]
But I’m your therapist, unreciprocated
Put you back together with my own pieces
You know it leaves me in ruins
No one's gonna save me, I should have learned
I’m supposed to do this on my own

[Verse 2]
I’m sorry if this one gets way too honest
I’ll bite off my tongue just to let you breathe
I hope you feel better, I hope you feel safer
I hope you know you’ll be the death of me

[Chorus]
The death of your therapist, unreciprocated
Put you back together with my own pieces
You know it leaves me in ruins
No one's gonna save me, I should have learned
I’m supposed to do this on my own
[Bridge]
Why does it only ever seem to hurt when I smile
Why do I feel all alone in rooms that are full
Is this my penance, is this what I deserve
If there’s a God, isn’t she merciful
I don’t think they could save me now
But don’t sweat it, forget it, I’ll be dead in a second
No funerals, I hate them

[Chorus]
I’d hate to think you cared about your therapist, unreciprocated
Put you back together with my own pieces
You know it leaves me in ruins
No one's gonna save me, I should have learned
I’m supposed to do this on my own
