Confusion
Count Me Out Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I, I never thought that
I'd see the day that you would break apart
And when,
When did depression
Find a way
To break your fucking heart
With unanswered questions
When there's no reason for the sudden change
Things may never be the same again, yeah
You've got to take control
I've got to catch myself
Before I fall apart again

Show me there's something more
Than upset and regret
Show me there's something more
Than crashing into the end

I can't decide
I can't decide
Is it worth that much to you?
As much as this means to me
I can't decide
I can't decide
Is it worth that much to you?
Or just nothing

I, I never thought that
I'd see the day that you would break apart
And when,
When did depression
Find a way
To break your fucking heart
With unanswered questions

When there's no reason for the sudden change




Things may never be the same again, yeah
You've got to take control
