VERSE:
Here I am, take me
It's easier to give in, no whoa, whoa
Some people mistake me
They only hear what they want to hear, yeah
If you're losing sleep, forgive me
I just can't keep pretending
CHORUS:
I'm packing my bags 'cause I don't want to be
The only one who's drowning in their misery
And I'll take that chance 'cause I just want to breathe
And I won't look back and wonder how it's supposed to be
How it's supposed to be, ho, oh
VERSE:
There's a prism by the window
It lets the light leak in, oh whoa oh whoa
I wish you would let me
You feel the water but do you swim, mmmm mmm oh whoa, oh whoa
And it's only me, empty handed
With a childish grin and a camera
CHORUS 2:
I'm packing my bags 'cause I don't want to be
The only one who's drowning in their misery
And I'll take that chance 'cause I just want to breathe
And I won't look back and wonder how it's supposed to be
How it's supposed to be, ho, oh
How it’s supposed to be
Oh, whoa, whoa
BRIDGE:
Da da, da da, da da, mm
La da, da da da, la de
La da, da da da, la de
La da, da, da
(2x)
CHORUS
Then ending:
How it's supposed to be
Tell me how it's supposed to be
Tell me how, tell me how, tell me how it's supposed to be
Oh whoa, oh whoa, oh, oh whoa
Only one, the only one who's drowning in their misery
'Cause I'm packing my bags
'Cause I'm packing my bags
And I won't be back, yeah yeah
I'm packing my bags 'cause I don't want to be
Oh whoa, yeah yeah
