lyrics

You’re underneath my kitchen sink
And I’m not sure how you got that way
I’d reach my hand out to pull you up
But you’d never accept the help
I’d reach my hand out to pull you up
But you’d rather be stuck by yourself

I will admit-I am faker
A total bitch-my friends would say a coward
And I’d agree with them and me
There’s a difference between
The change we’d like to see
So what’s the point-just to get higher
I’m sick of love- where’s the real fire
I’d let it burn-we would let it burn together
And then feel guilty
When we don’t feel any better

But I am not your son
Couldn’t be proud of someone you never loved

I’d reach my hand out to pull you up
But you’d never accept the help
And I’m breaking my arm just to help you out
But you’d rather be breaking yourself

and I will never be
What you want me to be
Took a long time to see it
But I know now
And I can never shake
The feeling that you gave to me
Took a long time to figure it out
But I know that I know now

And your reply-it didn’t help me
Not reassurance just made me feel lonely
And I will quit when i want to
When it feels the most convenient
Now there’s no point-we could get higher
And fade away like dust on a tire
Just learn to love-learn to be nicer
Or could bleed out
We’ve got a whole lot of anger

I’d reach my hand out to pull you up
But you’d never accept the help
I’d reach my hand out to pull you up
But you’d rather be stuck by yourself

But I am not your son
Couldn’t be proud of someone you never loved
And I am not your answer
Couldn’t be proud of someone who couldn’t do better
