You don't get to choose what makes me blue
I don't want to compromise myself for you
You always find a way back in
You creep, you crawl under my skin
I would if I could
I would if I could
I would if I could
I would

You can try to read my mind
You'll misread the signs
You say you can't discern the things that I despise
Keep me shallow, keep me sweet
You're not fond of the way I speak
I would if I could
I would if I could
I would if I could
I would

This wasn't what I've been dreaming of
I wanted to feel like I was good
You make me feel like I'm alone
Does it make you feel less insecure?

You know you can't decide what's wrong and right
You see everything in black and white
Erased your name from on my phone
But I'm terrified of being alone
I would if I could
I would if I could
I would if I could
I would

This wasn't what I've been dreaming of
I wanted to feel like I was good
You make me feel like I'm alone
Does it make you feel less insecure?

You told me you want me
Give me something that's temporary
You're so cruel
And I would if I could
I would if I could
I would

This wasn't what I've been dreaming of
I wanted to feel like I was good
You make me feel like I'm alone
Does it make you feel less insecure?
