"This Time Around" lyrics

"This Time Around"

Filled with hope but my heart keeps sinking
I don't wanna miss you so I just stop blinking
Bleaching my hair in the bathroom sink
Never understand a single thing that you think

I'm filled with dread but I can't stop wishing
Cause every time I touch you the cat starts hissing
Need you like a bite that won't stop itching
You're one half with me and one half missing

Hey babe
It's ok
I just feel like I'm on fire
The pulsing in my chest
Sorta feels like desire
And I'm getting used to it now
Maybe I'll get out
This time around

Shadow puppet, I do what you like
My thin wrists in the morning light
Feet by the freezer, sweet green peas
You cut me with a comment in parenthesis

Lost my bearings, all things go
Maddy's getting married and I'm going alone
You wrote me a letter I read on my phone
To tell me why to make you come I had to get choked

Hey babe
It's ok
I just feel like I'm on fire
The pulsing in my chest
Sorta feels like desire
And I'm getting used to it now
Maybe I'll get out
This time around

Hey babe
It's ok
I just feel like I'm on fire
The pulsing in my chest
Sorta feels like desire
And I'm getting used to it now
Maybe I'll, maybe I'll get out
This time around

Hey babe
It's ok
I just feel like I'm on fire
The pulsing in my chest
Sorta feels like desire
