That is Why

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Well I never wanted to be anything that you wanted me to be You never wanted to be anything that was in any Way like me That is why They took me to the hospital The reasons were implausible Cause what you broke they could not fix And what you cut they could not stitch The gash you left they could not seal The things you took they could not steal [Chorus] The water is shallow The tree trunk is hollow [Verse 2] I never wanted to be anything that you wanted me to bе And you never wanted to bе anything that was in any Way like me That is why I look past your common house And you required an open mouth Why did you say that to me You knew that I could never be Why did you say that to me You knew that I could never be [Bridge] So smile at me and close your eyes so I don't false [?] Smile at me and close your eyes so I don't false [?] Smile at me and close your eyes so I don't false [?] Lie to me, and close your eyes Smile at me and close your eyes so I don't false [?] [?] It was just a way to pass the time Just because our friendships break Doesn't mean my hands won't shake shake [Chorus] The water is shallow The tree trunk is hollow [Verse 3] That is why Anything is plausible And I'm not gonna stop you And you don't want me Don't give me that [?] There's other ways to say it Don't hit with that old stick My body cannot handle it Don't sneak in that cheap shot Because I am what you are not Don't lay me down and look away After we acted out this way
