Just a Mess Lyrics

[Verse 1]
So I'm on my own now
Passing through faces
Stumbling through downtown
Far from the pavement
On my way to see you
What else am I gonna do?
I know that I'm just a mess
And you're just the person that changed my life

[Pre-Chorus]
Time stops as I stand at your door
I'm losing focus, lost it all
We had before we said goodbye
You made me cry, I won't deny
That yes, we lied and told our friends
That we were fine and played pretend
But I'm so scared of being alone
And you're the only one that feels like home

[Chorus]
I'm just a mess
Now I'm just a mess
And you'rе just the person that changed my lifе
I'm just a mess
Now I'm just a mess
And you're just the person that changed my life

[Verse 2]
The rain starts to come down
My hands start to shakin'
I'm scared of this comedown
That I have been waiting
Anxiety creeps now
No hands there to reach out
I know that I'm just a mess
And you're just the person that changed my life

[Pre-Chorus]
Time stops as I stand at your door
I'm losing focus, lost it all
We had before we said goodbye
You made me cry, I won't deny
That yes, we lied and told our friends
That we were fine and played pretend
But I'm so scared of being alone
And you're the only one that feels like home

[Chorus]
I'm just a mess
Now I'm just a mess
And you're just the person that changed my life
I'm just a mess
Now I'm just a mess
You're just the person that changed my life
I'm just a mess
Now I'm just a mess
You're just the person that changed my life
I'm just a mess
Now I'm just a mess
And you're just the person that changed my life

[Bridge]
Time stops as I stand at your door
I'm losing focus, lost it all
We had before we said goodbye
You made me cry, I won't deny
That yes, we lied and told our friends
That we were fine and played pretend
But I'm so scared of being alone
And you're the only one that feels like home

[Chorus]
I'm just a mess
Now I'm just a mess
And you're just the person that changed my life
I'm just a mess
Now I'm just a mess
You're just the person that changed my life
I'm just a mess
Now I'm just a mess
You're just the person that changed my life
I'm just a mess
Now I'm just a mess
And you're just the person that changed my life

What did Tones and I say about "Just a Mess"?

It’s my most favourite song I’ve ever written. It’s pretty much about how I can now say I’m in love, and I never could’ve said that before. I can’t write about anything that isn’t real to me, because then there’s no emotion and I have nothing to write about. So I thought, well, now I’m in love. I can’t write about love too much yet, but I wrote about how I’d feel if we broke up.
