Under Your Black and White Striped Sleeves
I counted my footsteps to your door, to end this game
And now I just can't seem to find my way back (my way back)
I drowned myself in fears of unrealistic things
Just to watch them boil
I'm still counting the hours, it sours my mouth
(oh, it sours my mouth)
I'm sitting in the dark like I know something
I know you'll never face it
Don't wanna be another secret you keep
Under your black and white striped sleeves
Just like the sorrow and the scars that you try
To hide from me
No, I'm so young to be under your thumb
Now I'm going home
Will you watch me as I fade away?
I'm tired of hiding what it feels like
To wait for you all night
I just can't tell you and I'm too weak to try (I'm too weak to try)
I drowned myself in fears of not so distant things
Now I watch them boil
I'm done counting the hours and souring my mouth
I stay underwater til I'm out of breath
I know you'll never get it
Don't wanna be another secret you keep
Under your black and white striped sleeves
Just like the sorrow and the scars that you try
To hide from me
No, I'm so young to be under your thumb
Now I'm going home
Will you watch me as I fade? I
(So sad to think of what we could have been)
Now I'm done
Now I'm done
(So sad to think of what we could have been)
Save your words, it's no use to us
I gave it a chance and I called your name (I called your name)
Day by day
Will you watch me as
I fade away?
And now I just can't seem to find my way back (my way back)
I drowned myself in fears of unrealistic things
Just to watch them boil
I'm still counting the hours, it sours my mouth
(oh, it sours my mouth)
I'm sitting in the dark like I know something
I know you'll never face it
Don't wanna be another secret you keep
Under your black and white striped sleeves
Just like the sorrow and the scars that you try
To hide from me
No, I'm so young to be under your thumb
Now I'm going home
Will you watch me as I fade away?
I'm tired of hiding what it feels like
To wait for you all night
I just can't tell you and I'm too weak to try (I'm too weak to try)
I drowned myself in fears of not so distant things
Now I watch them boil
I'm done counting the hours and souring my mouth
I stay underwater til I'm out of breath
I know you'll never get it
Don't wanna be another secret you keep
Under your black and white striped sleeves
Just like the sorrow and the scars that you try
To hide from me
No, I'm so young to be under your thumb
Now I'm going home
Will you watch me as I fade? I
(So sad to think of what we could have been)
Now I'm done
Now I'm done
(So sad to think of what we could have been)
Save your words, it's no use to us
I gave it a chance and I called your name (I called your name)
Day by day
Will you watch me as
I fade away?
