Small Man Syndrome

from Keepsakes by Black and White Rewrite

lyrics

Look me in the eye, don’t you lie to me again
Staring at the floor your number all the things you never wanted (Your way out)
You make me out a fool (Found your way out)
The fool I've been for you (your escape now)
All my love, it cut me up (Getaway sound)
That night you said "we need to talk"

And I knew then
I could smell him on your skin (on and on and on it's easy)
I hope he took your breath away (on and on you promised to me)
I hope he made it worth it
And I died then
Felt my chest start caving in (On and on with shallow breathing)
I hope he made your body shake (on and on you lie right through your teeth)
I hope he came out swinging

Look me in the eye, but don’t forget to pull the pin
Strap it to my chest with your apologies then take off running (Your way out)
Tell me what to do (Found your way out)
What more could I have given you? (your escape now)
You called it love, then cut me up (Getaway sound)
That night you said "we need to talk"

I hope he made it worth it
I hope he made it worth it
I hope he took your breath away
I'm the one who lost my faith that day
I hope he made it worth it
