Loupe - Be a Mess Lyrics

What's wrong with me that I'm so lost in the dream of being with you
Bubble clouds fly over my head filled with pictures of you
I'm so focused on that line I can't cross that I tripped and became a disgrace
You're so focused on material things that you don't see me slipping away
What do I have to do
To get this through to you
I'd rather be a mess
Than fall for your slyness
I'd rather trust myself
Than break my willingness
To be all that I need
To be happy with me
I'd rather be a mess than fall for your slyness
Can't bring myself to get past the times you shattered my hopes
That you'd change into someone who'd love me despite all my faults
Don't act like you are high and mighty throughout all this pain
You won't notice til I walk out the door that I'm so close to slipping away
What do I have to do
To get this through to you
I'd rather be a mess
Than fall for your slyness
I'd rather trust myself
Than break my willingness
To be all that I need
To be happy with me
I'd rather be a mess than fall for your slyness
