Tell Me Something Good

I am empty
I am speechless
I am the love that you never had
I'm an ember in a wildfire
And I'm bright inside your head

I'm your safety
But I'm lonely
I am the words you never speak
I am dirty and unworthy
And I want you to kill me

So just tell me something good
Please tell me anything at all
'Cause I don't wanna be the one who's weak anymore
And I don't wanna be another part of every day you can't handle
And I don't want wanna be another sob story
I just wanted to move on
Can we move on?
Can we move on?

And I don't wanna be lost
But I don't wanna be found
I'll keep my heart in the drawer and my clothes on your floor
Just to remind you I'm back in town

Whoa, I'm losing my brain
I think I found my calling on a northbound train
How could I be someone you want to look after?
Instead I'm just the person who can love the laughter
All this time against the grit has really
Made me just wanna quit
'Cause I guess I'm not the person you want to love after all

So just tell me something good
Please tell me anything at all

Now I am totally lost
And you don't want me around
I'll keep my head pointed down in a permanent frown
Until the next time that I leave town
