Aisle 4

You were always waiting
At the entrance to my block
Like you were something I forgot
A twisted key in a broken lock
You were out there somewhere
A cloud just to rain on me
To drain all my energies
To make me the worst that I can be

I should've left you in the store
I know 'cause I've been here before
And I said, "Won't you stop for a minute, please?"
I'm sick of having you around
When all you do is bring me down
And I start to wish that I'd kept all my receipts

When you're here, I can't be myself
Spending all my time existing in the skin of someone else
When you're near, I can barely breathe
'Cause you're suffocating, won't stop hating me

I got sick of waiting for you to let me off the train
(Ladies and gentlemen)
Stuck in a car, going 'round again (welcome aboard the 2020 service)
Florescent lights up in my brain (oh)
You're sometimes out in daylight
Trying clothes on that aren't my size
I wish that you'd empathise with me sometimes

I tried to lose you in the store
You followed me to aisle four
Oh, you and I are just ingredients for a total mess
Well, now I haven't got the time to babysit this brain of mine
It's you and I, and no one else needs to know the rest

When you're here, I can't be myself
Spending all my time existing in the skin of someone else
When you're near, I can barely breathe
'Cause you're suffocating, won't stop hating me

When you're here, I can't be myself
Spending all my time just living in the skin of someone else
When you're near, I can barely breathe
'Cause you're suffocating, so degrading, won't stop hating
Maybe it's just me
