"Guess" lyrics

"Guess"

I'm polite when I wake
And when I get upset
Keep a smile on my face
And a bomb in my chest
And it hurts how much I want
What I give away

Fly like a heartbeat above the ground
Just enough so I can tune you out
And the things I don't say out loud
Are like cobwebs in a haunted house
And I can't eat, and I don't sleep
I just dream awake
'Til I splash the water on my face

Yeah, I was supposed to cling on to every word you said
But I'm nothing like your mother
Yeah, you were supposed to lose your head
But you're nothing like my father
I couldn't live up to the bar you set
I'm doing my best, but you're never impressed
I never know what you expect
I'm banging my head tryna guess, guess, guess

I'm wasting my breath on you
Pouring myself out to get shut down
'Cause nothing works like it used to
And we don't feel like we used to feel
I want you to fight me
I need it to hurt to know that it's real

Yeah, I was supposed to cling on to every word you said
But I'm nothing like your mother
Yeah, you were supposed to lose your head
But you're nothing like my father
I couldn't live up to the bar you set
I'm doing my best, but you're never impressed
I never know what you expect
I'm banging my head tryna guess, guess

All of me (All of me)
Is tearing myself down
Am I in trouble now? (Trouble now)
Fighting it all out
And, baby, it's all of me (All of me)
Pouring it all out

'Cause I was supposed to cling on to every word you said
I was supposed to cling on to every word you said
Guess, guess, guess
