Understatement
I'm Sick of Smiling
And so is my jaw
Can't you see my front is crumbling down?
I'm sick of being someone I'm not
Please get me out of this spot

Hoping for a chance to think on time
And I'm tracing over your letter
To see if your intentions are as good as mine

You're getting worse and I know
That you'll be calling me again
I'm done with everything
That had to do with you
Don't worry your pictures are already burned
I'm done with new friends
Don't sell yourself short
You'll lose it in the end
I can't help how I feel
