Play the Victim

from #1 EP by Trace Italian

/

lyrics

Sortin photos of a time when you were mine
Thinking back, I suppose I felt just fine
And I don't
I don't know

Is this all that it feels like to have some codependency
Maybe its my depression or maybe loves not all its cracked up to be

You look away when I take off my clothes
To get into bed, and as my eyes close
I know
Yea I know

That I never feel as lonely as when I lie down next to you
And it feels like life is ending when you say you love me too

Trapped under the weight of fucked up insincerity
Why can't you just tell me how you really feel bout me

Cause I know I've gained some weight and I know I can't make you laugh
As hard as other guys you've slept with and I feel like roughly half

As in love with you as I convinced myself I had to be
Yea, its hard to play the victim to own own stupidity

Its been almost a year why can't I just let you go
Why am I so fuckin scared of being all alone

Keep on living day to day, some day I'll forget it all
Forget all of the reasons I said I'd never fall in love again
