I Know You Are, But What Am I?

I feel so sick when I hear his name
and I never ever wanna see his fucking face again
He represents everything I'll never have
Just a snowflake in our avalanche
I don't want him to be where you belong
and I never ever said I wasn't in the fucking wrong
secrets and scars we take to the grave
Just one teardrop in our tidal wave

What if I pleaded insane?
What if I sever
my heart from my brain?
What if I never
had all my habits to blame?
would I be better
off I remain the same?

He represents everything I'll never be
Just one gear in our flawless machine
Flawless as a house made of straw
Gunshy dueler, so slow on the draw
He doesn't know how I'll take and take and take
just one tremor in our earthquake
If there is no chance, there is no could
but no one understood, understood, understood

What if I pleaded insane?
What if I sever
my heart from my brain?
What if I never
had all my habits to blame?
would I be better
off I remain the same?

I feel so sick and I feel to blame
and I'll never ever be at fucking peace again
I've never been better, I've never been worse
I'm so glad I met her, but I'm not the first

What if I pleaded insane?
What if I sever
my heart from my brain?
What if I never
had all my habits to blame?
would I be better
off I remain the same?

So turn your cheek and connect it to my fist
Fall to the ground and give the dirt a kiss
I keep telling myself I'm bigger than this
I'm not one to hate, but I've been known to bitch.
