Lyrics
I don?t mean to be rejecting.
I don?t mean to be sincere.
But there?s a time and there?s a place, and that?s right now but it?s not here.
So I don?t mind the pain so much, it?s what keeps me real.
And I don?t need a reason to cry, I need a reason to still be here.
I?m not trying to be so simple.
I?m not trying to be so free.
I?m not trying to forget everything you?ve been, I just need to remember me.
So I don?t mind the pain so much, it?s what keeps me satisfied.
And I don?t need to find the door, I need to keep it open.
You see, this life?it ain?t quite mine.
It ain?t quite under my control.
You can?t say you believe in suicide and in the same breath mention your soul.
So I don?t mind the pain so much, it?s what keeps me hungry.
And I don?t need to reminisce, I need to be moving on.
