I find comfort In the arms of a stranger
Walking down crowded streets
But no ones there to answer
Why I find comfort in the drama of the danger
Oh it’s a small price to pay
For some distraction
Skin to skin, ignoring my guilt
Better yet I’m feeling me still
Molding into the space between your arms
I choose you over me
No matter who that may be
Thought being wanted’s better
Than being left wanting
I choose you over me
I’d sacrifice anything
For a temporary fix to loneliness
I choose you over me,
I choose you over me
I find comfort in giving all of my time
To the wrong guy
When the moment feels right
Right after shallow imitation
Of connection I hold onto I crave
Skin to skin, ignoring my guilt
Swear to God I’ll escape this hell
That mirrors heaven so perfectly
I choose you over me
No matter who that may be
Thought being wanted’s better
Than being left wanting
I choose you over me
I’d sacrifice anything
For a temporary fix to loneliness
I choose you over me,
I choose you over me
Waited for you to come around
Like holding my breath under water
But your oxygen is like poison
So I hold my breath, I hold my-
