Lyrics

lyrics
I don't want you to invite me
But if you don't, I'll throw a fit
And I hate to see you smile
Unless I'm the one that caused it
If you don't post about us
Then I become invisible
And yet our friendship won't survive
If it's kept strictly digital

And it's draining me, living for your approval
It's a strain on me, lying on this bed of nails
Please explain to me how to help with the removal
Of the hook on which I've been impaled

You need to have all eyes on you
So you never give me space
I try to share my point of view
But you laugh right in my face
When I tune into your wavelength
All I'm picking up is static
So I don't know why I try so hard
Am I just being dramatic?

(Am I?)

(No!)

And it's draining me, living for your approval
It's a strain on me, lying on this bed of nails
Please explain to me how to help with the removal
Of the hook on which I've been impaled

And if I could see myself the way I see you
Would I believe that you deserve the same respect?
If you were me, then would I still want to be you?
Or would we just be struggling to connect?

And it's draining me, living for your approval
It's a strain on me, lying on this bed of nails
Please explain to me how to help with the removal
Of the hook

And it's draining me, living for your approval
It's a strain on me, lying on this bed of nails
Please explain to me how to help with the removal
Of the hook on which I've been impaled

Ooh-oooh
