austin possum - i can’t look lyrics

[intro]
just try not to f+ck this one up

[verse 1]
i can’t handle these problems, i swear i got issues
constantly thinking if you die they won’t miss you
you know that’s just your demons that are trying to trick you
but what if they aren’t lying and you find out it is true?
dealing with this life has proved to be a fruitless task
when peace of mind and joy is all that you’ve ever asked
i wanna know who you are when you rip off that mask
when you go out with friends and put on that act
like, “i’m okay, i’m fine, don’t worry, i promise”
but i see misery and pain with sorrow as a garnish
mixed with a life so rusted and tarnished
i will give you every bit of love that i can harness
[chorus]
when i leave, please don’t cry for me, babe
i’ve not been having the best of days
remember the times i had a smile on my face
it may not’ve been often but remember the same
these busted rings and battered knuckles tell stories like books
of fallen angels, my friends, and all the chances we took
trepidation stays looming and it leaves my brain shook
it makes me scared, i’m so scared, i’m too scared to look
and i can’t look

[verse 2]
this shadow that’s attached to me, i just cannot shake
i’ve lost all care for anything that i had at stake
like what’s the f+cking point of going on each day
when you’re just watching yourself and all of your friends decay?
they say, “my friend, it gets better, i swear”
you know they don’t know that but at least know they care
’cause all we can do is stiffen up our upper lip
and keep pushing, just keep pushing, just push through that sh+t
don’t give me excuses because i’ve heard them all
even used most of them through every trial and fall
ones “i’m sorry, i’m lonely,” and “i just can’t seem to help myself”
but my favorite is “don’t leave me, i ain’t got n0body else”

[chorus]
when i leave, please don’t cry for me, babe
i’ve not been having the best of days
remember the times i had a smile on my face
it may not’ve been often but remember the same
these busted rings and battered knuckles tell stories like books
of fallen angels, my friends, and all the chances we took
trepidation stays looming and it leaves my brain shook
it makes me scared, i’m so scared, i’m too scared to look
and i can’t look
[outro]
when you leave, we will cry for you, babe
maybe not the same exact way that you think
we’ll be crying because of how much we miss you
as we hold on to each other and pretend that it is you
your busted rings are the only relic we own
we cherish everyday to imagine your home
we should have heeded the words that you said
we wish you were here and not in that dirt bed
and i can’t look
and i can’t look
and i can’t look
and i can’t look
