NO THANKS

I felt pretty scared
You, crying halfway up the stairs
Your hands look pretty red
And I don't think it's fair
I don't think it speaks
Any differently
From the sirens calling for you from the street
(Get off me)

I've been careless
With my confidence
Pulling out my hair and
Lying to my parents

I, I had it all and I kept it for myself
You made me promise
But I can't keep that as well

This is why I hate your help
This is why I can't trust anybody else
Telling me to keep the cut clean
Cauterise it if you need
There won't be any other chance

Please don't leave me by myself
Please don't leave me by myself

Watching as it starves
Hanging from its arms
Giving it an inch will end up giving you a scar

It's only fun until somebody gets hurt
So who's gonna stick the knife in first

This is why I hate your help
This is why I can't trust anybody else
Telling me to keep the cut clean
Cauterise it if you need
There won't be any other chance

This is why I hate your help
This is why I can't trust anybody else
Telling me to keep the cut clean
Cauterise it if you need
There won't be any other chance

Please don't leave me by myself

It looks painful
To know that you're capable
Caring for everyone else
But sparing yourself
That same act of kindness
Your chemicals work, so violent

This is why I hate your help
This is why I can't trust anybody else
This is why I hate your help
Because you just can't take it yourself

This is why I hate your help
This is why I can't trust anybody else
This is why I hate your help
You just can't take it yourself
This is why I hate your help
I can't trust anybody else
Telling me to keep the cut clean
Cauterise it if you need
There won't be any other chance

Please don't leave me by myself, self
