black coffee Lyrics

My humor's dark

But I can't quite breathe

Darkness has a hold of me

Some feelings are too loud to say

So I hurt as I smile away

Every night I lie awake

Perfection comes

To those who fake it

I've been drinking black coffee

Never fixes feeling foggy

Do you taste thin when you kiss my lips?

'Cause I don't feel it when you touch my hips

Skinny jeans

Thick loose sweater

Smiling so you think I'm better

Staying in

To stare at walls

The mask is off

But tears won't fall

'Cause mascara stains

Mirrors break

Perfection comes to those who ache

I've been drinking black coffee

Never fixes feeling foggy

Do you taste thin when you kiss my lips?

'Cause I don't feel it when you touch my hips

Chewing cherry gum to get my hit

Screamo music blocks the sound of it

Smiling, laughing just to mask it all

But no one laughs during curtain call

(Don't mean to be alarming

But inside me there's a war and

I'm always waiting for the other shoe to drop

Not one lick of rum

But baby I've been feeling numb

Just because I'm tired doesn't mean that I can stop

Don't mean to be alarming

But inside me there's a war and

I'm always waiting for the other shoe to drop

Not one lick of rum

But baby I've been feeling numb

Just because I'm tired doesn't mean that I can stop)

I've been drinking black coffee

Vacant eyes but they look glossy

Do you taste thin when you kiss my lips?

'Cause I don't feel it when you touch my hips

Chewing cherry gum to get my hit

Screamo music blocks the sound of it

Smiling, laughing just to mask it all

But no one laughs during curtain call

(Don't mean to be alarming

But inside me there's a war and

Just because I'm tired doesn't mean I want to stop)
