verse
Oh, hush, my dear, it's been a difficult year
And terrors don't prey on innocent victims
Trust me, darlin', trust me, darlin'
verse
It's been a loveless year
Integrity, faith and crocodile tears
Trust me, darlin', trust me, darlin'
pre-chorus
So look me in the eyes, tell me what you see
Perfect paradise, tearin' at the seams
I wish I could escape it, I don't wanna fake it
Wish I could erase it, make your heart believe
verse
Did all my dreams never mean one thing?
Does happiness lie in a diamond ring?
Oh, I've been askin' for problems, problems, problems
I wage my war, on the world inside
I take my gun to the enemy's side
Oh, I've been askin' for problems, problems, problems
pre-chorus
So look me in the eyes, tell me what you see
Perfect paradise, tearin' at the seams
I wish I could escape it, I don't wanna fake it
Wish I could erase it, make your heart believe
