know me better

All the plants are dying,
I cannot let them grow
'Cause they remind me
That you said you had to go
Don't you think it's funny
That I haven't left the house
Though this place is soaked in memories
And I cannot get them out

I just called to tell you
That you've been on my mind
That I'm trying to be strong
While you're leaving me behind
But all you had to say was
You "need more time,
That we cannot be friends,
You're not ready to be fine"

So why is your name
Still showing up on my phone
I thought you want to be alone?

I'll give you what you want
I'll give you what you want
But you should know me better
You think it won't hurt
You think this won't hurt
But you should know me better

Fill up with distractions
So you don't have to feel
So the life we built together,
None of it was real
Push your pain down in a bottle,
Save it for a night
For when you start to realize
That I might have been right

I know this will hit like
A shot to the chest
But you don't miss me yet

I'll give you what you want
I'll give you what you want
But you should know me better
You think it won't hurt
You think this won't hurt
But you should know me better
Don't try to act like this is not a death
I'm losing track of how this'll end
I'll give you what you want
I'll give you what you want
But should know me better

I let this go too far
The distance in who we are
You should know me
You should know me
I put you down, ran my mouth
Only to see it now
You don't know me
I don't know you
You should know me
You should know me

I'll give you what you want
I'll give you what you want
But you should know me better
You think it won't hurt
You think this won't hurt
But should know me better
Don't try to act like this is not a death
I'm losing track of how this'll end
I'll give you what you want
I'll give you what you want
But you should know me better
