Now I'm grinding my teeth and I can't sleep, Overthinking and feeling bitter, As all of my patience slowly wears thinner.

You do this every time, Now there's no one by your side, But it's your fault when you fall for your own lies, And you make your issues mine. You've changed far from what you were, And I gave everything I could, Now we've both got problems, I know it, But you let yours build up and surface. And I hate what's left but you know I can't let go. You do this every time, Now there's no one by your side, But it's your fault when you fall for your own lies, And you make your issues mine.
