Well I cross my "I's" and I dot my "T's"
and all my mistakes are catching up with me
I'll think it over and underneath
I'm always watching from under sheets
in empty bedroom I lie awake, I lie awake
Well I cross my "I's" and I dot my "T's"
and all my mistakes are catching up with me
I'll mull it over while counting sheep
I'll break the silence with my screams
now brace for impact if you're awake, if you're awake
I dot my "I's," I cross my "T's"
facing mistakes, it's not new to me
now though awake, I am at peace
now maybe someday
I can get some sleep
I dot my "I's" and I cross my "T's"
I dot my "I's" and I cross my "T's."

I'm so sick and tired of not being enough for anyone
I just wish that I could find the way to be the one who's saving you
Reality is crushing me, I'm stuck inside my head
and I know that I won't sleep tonight unless I'm fuckin' dead
Fear is overtaking me and all I've ever said and done
I'll never drop my guard again, I hate this heartless monster I've become
Reality is crushing me, I'm stuck inside my head
and I know that I won't sleep tonight unless I'm fuckin' dead
Envy overtaking me, I want what I could never have
to fall asleep within your arms, to wake and never have to want again
Reality is crushing me, I'm stuck inside my head
and I know that I won't sleep tonight unless I'm fuckin' dead
I'll try to stay awake tonight and fight what's in my head
sometimes you have to save yourself before you save your friends

Let me down or let me go, I don't wanna die alone
but I might if this is life without your love
in these sheets I can sleep without you—
what does that make me?
Co-dependent, hard to manage, nothing's ever free
I don't know if I could handle another person more than me
nothing's ever really given, I give less than I take
I know I'm the reason why I spend these nights awake
Well it's been real and it's been fun, but it hasn't been real fun
I wish that I could find the words to talk to you without spilling my guts
but it's hard when you're all that I'm dreamin' of
Co-dependent, hard to manage, nothing's ever free
I don't know if I could handle another person more than me
nothing's ever really given, I give less than I take
I know I'm the reason why I spend these nights awake
and I know that when I go I won't be easily persuaded to see
any contrarian point of view existing of me
Co-dependent, hard to manage, nothing's ever free
I don't know if I could handle another person more than me
Co-dependent, hard to manage, nothing's ever free
I don't know if I could handle another person more than me
nothing's ever really given, I give less than I take
I know I'm the reason why I spend these nights awake

Ignore my bad knees
I've twisted, torn my ligaments to smithereens
now I can't make the five-minute walk to your house
without them giving out
Ignore my bedsheets
they're never made; beneath this comforter for days
and in our hideout
we can tune the world out as the radio plays
and I can be right here for you—
if you want me to.
We could lie for hours
right beneath the flowers in the window sill
you trace the vacant spaces on my clothes where
cigarette burns haven't spilt
confessing in the starlight
if you're not feeling all right tell me, how do you feel?
You say you're feeling useless, "What's the point
of doing this all over again?"
Well I can't make you all right, but I'll give it my best try
to help you learn to love yourself
"You say you wanna stay here, but not all by your lonesome—
that ain't gonna keep me here."
If you wanna find out what it's like way out west
in another college town
well I'm not really ready but I can be your best-friend—
at least until the end of the year.
and I can be right here for you—
if you want me to.
I can be right here for you, if you want me to
I can be right there for you, if you want me to
I can stay right here for you, if you want me to
I won't ever leave from here, if you don't want me to.
