wondering why

Emergancy Room Romantic





Through muffled screams and swollen eyes

From lots of pills and alibis

I always find my romance in the emergency room

I remind you of everything that you hate

And you remind me I’m the one to blame



I’m fighting myself to get you out of my head

But I’m hanging off of every word you said





Forced heart beat and broken mirrors

Flaws and faults are held so dear

My reflection makes me sick

The pain we feel is nothing new

Prescription drugs and photographs

Of loneliness and nervous laughs

What you call misery through anxious eyes

Is something I can’t see



I’m fighting myself to get you out of my head

But I’m hanging off of every word you said

I’m fighting myself to get you out of my head

And I’m screaming loud enough to wake the dead



I’m fighting myself to get you out of my head

But I’m hanging off of every word you said
