Erased by Essenger Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You can tell me that it’s not my fault
Sleep all day, wide awake when the night falls
And I don’t know who I’m supposed to be
"Just be yourself", the fuck is that supposed to mean
Told you that I’d stay in touch
But things change and these days I don’t get out much
And I’m sorry that I’ve not been there
Just things are tough, please don’t tell me I don’t fucking care
[Chorus]
It’s not your place to try to change me
It’s far too late for you to save me
I’m tired of living in the background
I wanna leave but I don’t know how
[Verse 2]
I’m fading out slowly
The city’s so lonely
Tell you I’m fine, push it aside
You think that you know me
I know I’m complacent
You’ll find a replacement
If you need anything, I’ll be wasting away in the basement
[Break]
"Hey man, I'm sick of trying to track you down all the time...
Get back to me... or I'm done. Alright?"
[Chorus]
You can tell me that it’s not my fault
Sleep all day, wide awake when the night falls
And I don’t know who I’m supposed to be
Just be yourself, the fuck is that supposed to mean?
Told you that I’d stay in touch
But things change and these days I don’t get out much
And I’m sorry that I’ve not been there
Just things are tough, please don’t tell me I don’t fucking care
[Break]
"Hey Jeff, It's mom. Just checking on you this morning to see how you're doing. I'm really concerned cause I haven't heard anything from you, so please call me, okay? Love you. Bye."
You can tell me that it’s not my fault
