Wrapped Up
I've only ever been addicted to sorrow
And I've chased it so long I don't feel it much
Like my meth-mouthed uncle with the brand-new track marks
I've grown tolerant; I need something harder
Growing up is giving up
I'm Bored to tears with love and laughter
And Forever seeking the mourning after
Growing up is giving up on love
Because you hunted for hurt till you felt nothing at all
You abandon being able to be scared
If you learn to love your nightmares
Poison your heart all that you want
But what doesn't kill you makes you go numb
I went from "Woe is me,"
And, "Nobody's ever gonna love me,"
To sneaking out while they're still asleep
Just a little bit too abruptly
A Trojan heart designed to protect you
From letting your compulsions infect you
Surprise, surprise, safety comes with a price:
Wrapped up so tight not even the feelings can get through
And I've chased it so long I don't feel it much
Like my meth-mouthed uncle with the brand-new track marks
I've grown tolerant; I need something harder
Growing up is giving up
I'm Bored to tears with love and laughter
And Forever seeking the mourning after
Growing up is giving up on love
Because you hunted for hurt till you felt nothing at all
You abandon being able to be scared
If you learn to love your nightmares
Poison your heart all that you want
But what doesn't kill you makes you go numb
I went from "Woe is me,"
And, "Nobody's ever gonna love me,"
To sneaking out while they're still asleep
Just a little bit too abruptly
A Trojan heart designed to protect you
From letting your compulsions infect you
Surprise, surprise, safety comes with a price:
Wrapped up so tight not even the feelings can get through
