DENIAL

(we're in denial) (just in denial) <verse 1> I keep walking through beautiful places like they’re supposed to do something for me everybody’s speaking in plural like that's how it just supposed to be every now and then I forget it's all on me if I leave my keys then it all comes down at once hard and stupid and too much (we're in denial) <pre> Some nights I think I chose myself other nights I think I chose fear I go crazy holding both in my head (we're in denial) (just in denial) <chorus> I tell myself it saved me that something better’s gotta be on its way that I got out before the downfall before I had to watch it die maybe I left at the right time maybe I saw all it could be and walked away (we're in denial) <verse 2> People say when it’s right, you know questions disappear but I’ve had calm that felt like distance I’ve had love that stayed unclear (just in denial) <pre> I know missing someone doesn’t mean you were wrong to push them away it's just sad to turn into strangers <chorus> I tell myself it saved me that something better’s on its way that I got out before the downfall before I had to watch it die maybe I left at the right time I saw all it could be and walked away <bridge> I tell myself there was a reason I’ll understand it someday that something someone better’s coming for me that’s why I walked away but sometimes I don’t buy it I question if I'm denying I stay up thinking what if I actually just fucked up (we're in denial) <final chorus> II tell myself it saved me that something better’s on its way that I got out before the downfall before I had to watch it die maybe I left at the right time maybe I saw all it could be and walked away Maybe I lost what would’ve hurt me or the thing I should’ve stayed for (we're in denial) (just in denial) (we're in denial)
