  • Don't say you love me
    'Cause I can't say it back
    Don't say you're sorry
    'Cause you've done nothing bad
    Swallow my feelings
    But won't swallow my pride
    You know I've got a suit of armor on
    You'll never see me cry
    I hate the silence
    That's why the music's always loud
    So many problems, I try to drown them out
    1000 bottles
    Collecting souvenirs
    You know it's so hard to admit it
    But the only good inside of me is you

    I take all of these blue and yellow pills
    But nothing seems to last like you
    You're chasing after something that you'll never catch
    Oh, oh, oh, oh

    Like a white Mercedes
    Always been running too fast
    When your heart is breaking, you keep on taking me back
    Hate myself, I really love you
    Hurting you feels like I'm hurting as well
    All I know is I don't deserve you

    You're so forgiving
    My friends think you're the best
    From the beginning, your friends said it wouldn't last
    But this connection, it's something they don't see
    You know it's so hard to admit it
    But the best damn part of me was always you

    I take all of these blue and yellow pills
    But nothing seems to last like you
    You're chasing after something that you'll never catch
    Oh, oh, oh, oh

    Like a white Mercedes
    Always been running too fast
    When your heart is breaking, you keep on taking me back
    Hate myself, I really love you
    Hurting you feels like I'm hurting as well
    All I know is I don't deserve you

    I don't deserve you
    I don't deserve your love
    One day I'll pull through and I'll be good enough
    I don't deserve you
    I don't deserve your love, oh your love, yeah
    I don't deserve you
    I don't deserve your love
    One day I'll pull through and I'll be good enough
    I don't deserve you
    I don't deserve your love, oh your love

    Like a white Mercedes
    Always been running too fast
    When your heart is breaking, you keep on taking me back
    Hate myself, I really love you
    Hurting you feels like I'm hurting as well
    All I know is I don't deserve you
    All I know is I don't deserve you
    All I know is I don't deserve you
    All I know is I don't deserve you Writer/s: Alexandra Tamposi, Andrew Wotman, Charlotte Emma Aitchison, Nathan Perez
