Nervous People

Here I stand, I'm a broken man
A broken man, I'm starting over again
There you are, you're an anxious girl
An anxious girl, it's you against the world, but you
Well, I know you

You go pop another pill
Another pill, that's how you get your thrills
And we drink 'til we both go numb
We both go numb, I'm not the only one who knows
To not feel anything at all

You told me, "Never change"
You said that'd be okay

Run away
I can only keep you safe
I can't seem to give you what you need

You and I go insane for days
Insane for days, we never change our ways
You and I are the nervous type
The nervous type, we'll never turn out right, but you
I only care about you

You're the gun pointed at my chest
Well, at my chest, can I count on it?
I'm the place that you fear the most
You fear the most, won't you please just come back home?
Back where you belong

You told me, "Never change"
You said that'd be okay.
Knowing very well
You'd leave eventually

So run away
I can only keep you safe
I can't seem to give you what you need

Now past flames
Engulf your heart and head these days
No one will ever give you what you need

Do you sleep better now? (Do you sleep better now?)
Will you sleep better now? (Will you sleep better now?)
Can you sleep better now? (Can you sleep better now?)
I don't sleep better now (I don't sleep better now)

Run away
I can only keep you safe
I can't seem to give you what you need

Now past flames
Engulf your heart and head these days
No one will ever give you what you need

Run away
I can only keep you safe
I can't seem to give you what you need

Now past flames
Engulf your heart and head these days
No one will ever give you what you need
What you need!
