I'm not so good at this kind of thing 

Too bad this has to be perfect 

I'm a decent player

I know how to sing 

But damn, damn this is tough


And hollow is all 

that comes out of me 

It all sounds so sickeningly familiar 

I can't believe I just said that aloud 

I can't believe you can stand to stand there


If I were you

If I were you 

If I were you

I'd leave me


Anyone halfway normal 

Would be scrambling 

to make their case 

I just get so damn scattered 

I can't remember what you even asked me


In the next ten seconds 

I've got to learn to think on my feet 

You'll be that much

closer to the door 

You'll be sprinting down what used to be our street


If I were you

If I were you 

If I were you

I'd leave me


I tend to surrender before defeat 

It's so much neater that way 

With me never right 

and you never wrong 

There's no pretty way to balance the blame


I tend to focus on the darker side 

I forget there ever was light 

I tend to forget how I love this 

And the fucked up reasons why


If I were you

If I were you

If I were you 

I'd believe me
