Lyrics

I'm just a sorehead, I'm just a sorehead, I'm just a sorehead,

Please don't leave me all alone, I can't ignore it

I'm just a sorehead, I'm just a sorehead

I'm waking up neck deep,

I've been drowning here for weeks,

The memories lingering like your smell did on my sheets

Tell me, bae, after everything, what does this feeling mean

When I know that you're wrong for me but want you all the same?

You know I mean the best, but does it really change a thing

If I take away your stress, does it have to be a drain

Of course I'm gonna tell you no,

More than we can ever take,

God forbid I take a breath, just for a second, take a break

I'm neglecting my vessel just tryna unchain my spirit

When I lay there alone, I realize how much I'm fearing

On deeper levels than I can solve by just laying and dreaming

That one day I'll be better and the change will Keep sticking

Cause I wake up neck deep

While I'm drowning here for weeks

The memories linger on, like your smell did on my sheets

Tell me, baby after everything, what does this feeling mean

When I'm knowin that you're wrong for me,

But want you all the same?

Everybody else been finding things that make them feel complete

Me, I be steady chasing things that I don't wanna need

I write it out and play it back, then it brings me to my knees

It's got me preying on myself, I break it down just like my weed

Roll it up, put it in the air, now my problems up in smoke

All these things that I've been through, my failures stick with me the most

So focused on my potential, I don't come off how I meant to

I don't pick up on the cues until they already resentful

Give you an inch but you're taking a mile

I just can't resist how you're stringing me out

I wish I was pissed how you're treating me now

But my self-respect been MIA for a while

I look in your eyes and I feel like a child

I'm so hypnotized, I can't find a way out

You could do me right, you could do me wrong, I think I know,

Think I know what I got, so it must be almost gone

You know that I tried, but I cant do this alone

I'm so sick, I'm so tired, of trying to earn some respect

When it feels, most the time, like I barely exist

I'm wakin up neck deep,

I've been drowning here for weeks,

the memories lingerin like your smell did on my sheets,

tell me, bae, after everything,

what does this feeling mean,

When I know that you're wrong for me,

but still want you all the same?

I know I'm doing this all wrong, but ain't no way to do it right

I can't tell you that I'm numb, from putting up such a fight,

Cause then, you let me go, and now, I'm all alone,

Going right back where I started or you crying on the phone,

I'm tryna learn to swim out here, but the current be vicious

Won't hide a thing from you, but its makin me suspicious

All I know is what you tell me and sometimes it seem ridiculous

Tryna swim out there to save you, while you're drowning in my feelings

We waking up neck deep,

We been drowning here for weeks,

The memories linger and your smell keep stayin sheets,

Tell me, bae, after everything, what does it really mean

Every time that unravels only common thread is me
