There's something deep inside of me
It lingers and it presses hard
A tidal wave that never catches breath
The end is just the start
And now I don't know what to do (and now I don't know what to do, now I don't know what to do)

I'm not able to do bad things
Don't surround myself with desperados
And even though my strategy
Is just to see the bigger picture
All the while, I'm mystified (all the while, I'm mystified)

It's not right of you to do
What you've done to me
It is criminal
I am struggling to see
So, tell it to me slowly, tell it to me slowly
It's not fair of you to do
What you've done to me
It is arbitrary
I am covered in deceit
So, break it to me slowly, break it to me slowly (slowly)

Look up, look up
I keep falling
Look up, look up
I keep falling
Look up, look up
I keep falling down

Last night I dreamt that you and I
Were still in love, emulsified
And when I woke an emptiness
Took over me like nothing else
A bitter pill for me to take (bitter pill for me to take, pill for me to take)

Forgive my need for absolution
I know I'm not the one who's done wrong
Oh clemency you come to me
For bein' foolish, bein' weak
I need to gain control of this (gain control of this)

It's not right of you to do
What you've done to me
It is criminal
I am struggling to see
So, tell it to me slowly, tell it to me slowly
It's not fair of you to do
What you've done to me
It is arbitrary
I am covered in deceit
So, break it to me slowly, break it to me slowly (slowly)

Look up, look up
I keep falling
Look up, look up
I keep falling
Look up, look up
I keep falling down

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
All alone
So cruel
So cruel
So cruel
All alone
So cruel (I could've spoken up I guess)
So cruel (could not have given any less)
(And now I'm feeling such a fool, you know)
(Believing that you ever felt a thing for me was cruel)
So cruel (I am sore and I am burned)
So cruel (and this is everything I've learned)
(And now I'm feeling such a fool, you know)
(Believing that you ever felt a thing for me was cruel)
