i was just trying to save you from yourself.
'cause baby, your my heaven in this hell.
and while you're decaying, i'll be here saying, "you've done well."
girl, you've done well.
actually, lying to save me from myself
is another reason my fucking veins swell.
and while you rot, you won't be here to stop
me from saying, "you've done well."
girl, you've done well.
these words in this song isn't a plea for help.
'cause beautiful, i hope i make you melt. (on the inside)
and while you're crying, you better not find. (this lie)
and when i'm done singing, i'll be screaming, "you've done well."
yeah, you've done well.
yeah, you've done well.
you've done well.
we're a nation full of dumbells pulling nightshifts at the gym.
we're a nation full of bookworm girls dumbing down to fall in love with them.
in your soft spoken, story-book lies, is where i like to swim.
if i could have one last request, i would rather not drown.
o, i'd rather not drown. (drown)
i was just trying to save you from yourself. (yourself)
'cause baby, your my heaven in this hell. (hell)
and while you're decaying, i'll be here saying, "you've done well." (you've done well)
girl, you've done well.
yeah, only well.
a heartbeat from perfect.
an inch from the surface.
you've got the brains to learn it.
i'm laying on my hardwood floor,
talking to my friends, begining to get bored.
he's playing that strung out chord.
and i'm singing to the tune,
trying to tell you.
i was just trying to save you from yourself. (yourself)
'cause baby, your my heaven in this hell. (hell)
and while you're decaying, i'll be here saying, "you've done well." (you've done well)
girl, you've done well.
see you in hell.
