(#71) "Is It Just Me?" -- Emily Burns

Dear Reader,

Is It Just Me? by Emily Burns

Lyrics:

It's been way too long for me to find it this hard

Sitting alone, my fingers picking the sofa apart

An attempt to distract from the fact that I miss you

I wonder if your friends have had to carry you home

And stay for the night because they don't want to leave you alone

Way before it was fun, it's becoming an issue

I know it's cruel

But I kind of hope you're tortured too

Tell me, does your heart stop at the party when my name drops?

Like you're stood at the platform when the trains cross

Are you hurting, yeah you must be

Or is it just me?

Tongue-tied, screaming on the inside

When I say that we broke up and they ask why

Are you crying in the shower like a freak?

Or is it just me?

I heard a rumor you've been spending some time

With that blonde girl that you work with and I know she's exactly your type

And my miserable mind's running wild with the picture

Or are you there by yourself, dialing, redialing my number?

And I'm calling your mother, spilling tears on my jumper again

The way I am

I know it's cruel

But I kind of hope you're tortured too

Tell me, does your heart stop at the party when my name drops?

Like you're stood at the platform when the trains cross

Are you hurting, yeah you must be

Or is it just me?

Tongue-tied, screaming on the inside

When I say that we broke up and they ask why

Are you crying in the shower like a freak?

Or is it just me?

'Cause this would be one whole lot easier

God, I know that's selfish but it's true

If underneath some calm exterior

You're all fucked up too

Tell me, does your heart stop at the party when my name drops?

Like you're stood at the platform when the trains cross

Are you hurting, yeah you must be

Or is it just me?

Tongue-tied, screaming on the inside

When I say that we broke up and they ask why

Are you crying in the shower like a freak?

With only cigarettes for company?

Are you crying in the shower like a freak?

Or is it just me?

-- Ella Cinder
