Tonight I got a speeding ticket. It reminds of how I'm just too much
And just to fast to speak my mind, I know it happens all the time
I'm not saying it's not my fault I know that I'm the one to blame
At least it saves me from the trouble, still playing the same game
Back and forth, tennis match, someone's feelings getting hurt
It's when I think that I've hurt you I think my feelings hurt the worst
Maybe it don't count because I'm going all undiagnosed
I still want that validation, what seems to work the most is
When you tell me I'm your mess
That's when I feel I'm at my best
When you tell me I'm your mess
That's when I feel I'm at my best
My memory seems to serve me well
But it seems to me it's all the worst
It's so sharp it seems to me
The one who always gets cut first
Reminders of the headaches that I thought I put away for
Something that was certain I am not so sure today
A constant stream of floating questions your answers won't fulfill
And just before they kill me, I'll put you in my will cause
You can have my whole heart or at least you'll have what's left
I think it broke to pieces when I ripped it out my chest
I had to save it from the venom tearing up my mind
I lost my train of thought but maybe you can find it
When you tell me I'm your mess
That's when I feel I'm at my best
When you tell me I'm your mess
That's when I feel I'm at my best
This love is way too complicated
You just stay the hell away from me
I wish for us it could be painless
A life that doesn't seem to be
When you tell me I'm your mess
That's when I feel I'm at my best
When you tell me I'm your mess
That's when I feel I'm at my best
