Like It's Already Gone Lyrics

I've been living close to the chest

In between my ribs like a cage can protect me

I locked the monster in here, too

The monster looks a lot like you

I don't even know why I'm grieving like it's already gone

And I talk to you a hundred times but you never heard a word

All these conversations in my head

And I only imagine what you said

I'll break my heart a thousand different ways

Before you even get a say

Crying all alone and you don't even know I gave you the knife

Stab it in my heart and carving out the parts I think you don't like

You are just a puppet on my string as I inflict the pain I fear you'll bring

Living it again and again on unending loop

I don't even know why I'm grieving like it's already gone

And I talk to you a hundred times but you never heard a word

All these conversations in my head

And I only imagine what you said

I'll break my heart a thousand different ways

Before you even get a say

And what if it's all for nothing?

And what if it's only in my head?

And what if it's all for nothing?

'Cause you can't grieve if nothing's dead

And what if it's all for nothing?

Rehearsing for pain I'll never feel

But what if it's not for nothing?

And can I risk losing you for real?

All these conversations in my head

And I only imagine what you said

I'll break my heart a thousand different ways

Before you even get a say

Ooo
