Codependence Lyrics

I feel like I'm your mirror image

I feel like I'm always stuck in your shadow

I used to make my own decisions

Now I'm wondering where'd the time go

I used to be frightened of your manipulation

But I manipulated myself with your actions

And I don't know what's your reaction

And what was my reaction

I feel like I'm gaining traction

I feel if I keep going in this fashion

There's gonna be none of me left to ration

Cause I've got codependence

Yeah that's my only defense

Yeah they all think it's nonsense

But to me it doesn't make sense

Why people leave me alone

And everybody has shown that they'll just

Run away and leave me to decay

To decay

I feel like I'm your ATM

Putting everything you want right in your hand

And you say I've got to be an independent man

But all I wanna do is follow you

And look at you like a fucking lost puppy

Cause I think that you're so lovely

And if I blink too often then you'll disappear

Disappear

I feel so shameful towards myself

And wish I could be someone else

Oh cause the way I was created

Makes me wish we never dated

And I know that I give too much

But I do it anyways like what the fuck

Cause I've got codependence yeah that's my only defense

Yeah they all think that I'm crazy

But I think I'm fucking lazy cause no matter

How much I fucking give I never can make em stay

Cause I can't fucking give it all

Give it all

Person after person

They all leave me in the dark

And every time I see a spark it goes away as fast as it came

And I gotta learn how to hold on without squeezing

Cause when I squeeze too hard they often end up leaving

Leaving

Cause I've got codependence

Yeah that's my only defense

Yeah they all think it's nonsense

But to me it kinda makes sense

Why people leave me alone guess I'm too much

And they'd just rather be alone with some independency

Cause of my codependency
