"Weeds" lyrics - BEACH BUNNY

BEACH BUNNY

"Weeds"

I'm tired of being anxious, broken, choking on my tears
I let the same old problems steal away my years
'Cause I'm somebody's dolly when a lover's near
But tend to crumble slowly when they disappear

[Pre-Chorus:]
Like nothing matters after natural disaster
And I wonder, where's my happy ever after?
I'm obsessed, depressed, can't seem to find no closure
What's the point in getting dressed if the two of us are over?

[Chorus:]
'Cause he's not the problem
The problem is you think you're only viable for love
When someone makes you feel complete
You're a diamond
Wish you could see you the way I see
You can't blossom if you keep growing gardens out of weeds

Tired of giving, giving, living like a lady in distress
But I don't need someone to save me
Not your Polly Pocket in your lover's locket
You can't hold me down, I'm a bursting bottle rocket

[Pre-Chorus:]
If you want to know me, start by trying to show me
That you're worthy, baby, prove that you can earn me
'Cause I'm sick of playing games, let's leave puzzles on the top shelf
Begging a boy to come for help when I could just learn to love myself

[Bridge:]
Lie awake, I ruminate all the friction that I've been feeling
'Cause they never felt like healing

[Outro:]
And you keep taking another piece of me
Not your problem, not my problem
You keep taking another piece of me
Not your problem, not my problem
You keep taking another piece of me (You keep taking)
Not your problem, not my problem (Not my problem)
You keep taking another piece of me (You keep taking)
Not your problem, not my problem (Not my problem)
You keep taking another piece of me (You keep taking)
Not your problem, not my problem (Not my problem)
You keep taking another piece of me (You keep taking)
Not your problem, not my problem (Not my problem)
