Attention

Why do I do this to myself
Let you put me back on the shelf
Did you ever want me or
Were you just lonely?

You didn't treat me right
Then walk into my life
Like you're a guest in my house
You were a pest, just a mouse

Say you love me again
Just to make yourself feel better
About the lies in your head
That explain all your actions

'Cause you've got a long way to go
Before you deserve what you stole

Don't invite yourself over
Just to dig the same hole
Don't reach out for my hand
It's never the one you chose to hold
You were once my friend
Then I let you in
Gave you what you wanted
Just some fucking attention

I know the lies you tell like the back of my hand
And you still tell them but I don't listen
Beg for me to let you in and so I did
Just for you to leave when you got what you wanted

There's a hole that you're digging
Maybe it's your grave
Bury yourself in your lies
To keep your soul safe

Cause you've got a long way to go
Before you deserve what you stole

Don't invite yourself over
Just to dig the same hole
Don't reach out for my hand
It's never the one you chose to hold
You were once my friend
Then I let you in
Gave you what you wanted
Just some fucking attention

Beg for me to love you
But I never did
Beg me for attention but
I'm over it
This game that you play
Is getting kinda boring
And I can't keep growing
If I keep letting you in

'Cause you can't be at fault
If you never learn better
Don't hold yourself accountable
Wait for a change of weather

'Cause you can't be at fault
You think you're so fucking perfect
No, you can't connect the dots
If you don't let yourself see them

Don't invite yourself over
Just to dig the same hole
Don't reach out for my hand
It's never the one you chose to hold
You were once my friend
Then I let you in
Gave you what you wanted
Just some fucking attention

Don't invite yourself over
Just to dig the same hole
Don't reach out for my hand
It's never the one you chose to hold
You were once my friend
Then I let you in
Gave you what you wanted
Just some fucking attention

I'm the one you lost
You never got my heart
Just reel as many as you can in
Pretend like you care for them
