Lyrics

[Verse 1]
We're awake in the middle of the night
Your smile is contagious
I never wanna change it
When we kiss, lookin' at the city lights
And everything is perfect
Maybe I deserve this
[PreChorus]
You're telling me everything's fine
Well, you must be missing the signs
It's only a matter of time
[Chorus]
You're healing my pain
But I'll be the problem
That won't go away
I'll take all the blame
If one day, you wake up
And don't feel the same
And you're holding all the damage
Like it's easy
And we planned it
And I'll never understand it either way
'Cause I want you to stay
But I am the problem that won't go away
[Verse 2]
It's out of my control
Designed to be unwanted
I'm broken to the core, and my family isn't spotless
You're making me a promise
And I feel like it's honest
Why can't I just want this?
Oh
[Chorus]
You're healing my pain
But I'll be the problem
That won't go away
I'll take all the blame
If one day, you wake up
And don't feel the same
And you're holding all the damage
Like it's easy
And we planned it
And I'll never understand it either way
'Cause I want you to stay
But I am the problem that won't go away
[Bridge]
When you're looking at me, I swear that you're looking at somebody I don't recognize
I don't recognize
When you're looking at me, I swear that you're looking at somebody I don't recognize
I don't recognize
[Outro]
I'll take all of the blame
If one day you wake up
And don't feel the same
'Cause I want you to stay
But I am the problem that won't go away
