Lyrics

I used to know my favorite color
Used to know my favorite song
Now everything tastes like nothing
Like I've been numb for too damn long
There's a mirror in the hallway—
I avoid it when I pass
'Cause the girl inside the glass
Looks like someone wearing my mask
I traded sleep for neon ceilings
Traded truth for powdered lies
Swore I had it under control—
Control was just another high
You said, "Promise me you'll call
Before you fall"
I promised you the world
Then I swallowed it whole
I'm a zombie in your doorway—
Breathing, but I'm gone
Sold our "always" for a moment
That was over by the dawn
I chose a quiet little chemical
Over your shaking hands
Now I'm just a ghost you loved
Who couldn't love you back again
You loved me alive
I loved you too
I just loved the numb
More than you
You were my safest harbor
I was your unfinished song
You needed me honest—
I needed to not feel wrong
Should've reached across the mattress
Said, "Stay awake with me
I'm scared of what's inside my head
I need you more than I need to be free"
But I reached for something smaller
Round and white and easy to hide
Told myself it wasn't betrayal
If I swallowed it alone at night
You said, "Talk to me, don't disappear"
I said, "I'm fine"
That was the first lie
You were the last line
I'm a zombie in your memory—
Skin without a name
Traded trust for temporary
And set our house aflame
You were reaching out to hold me
I was reaching for the shelf
I wasn't trying to lose you—
I was trying to lose myself
You loved me alive
God, I loved you too
I just loved the numb
More than you
You were knocking on my ribcage—
There was no one home
I turned you into background noise
So I could feel alone
I said, "It's just one more"
Like I hadn't said that twice
Like every "just this once"
Wasn't carving out my life
You cried into my shoulder—
I didn't even flinch
I chose a pill over your pulse
Over your lips
Over us
And now I'm sober in the cruelest way—
Wide awake with what I did
You didn't leave me for someone better
You left me for someone who lived
I'm a zombie in the daylight—
Heartbeat, no soul
If love was resurrection
I dug the hole
You deserved a living lover
Not a beautiful excuse
Now I'm haunting what we almost were
With nothing left to lose
You loved me alive
I still love you
But I don't know how to be
The girl you knew
