“SYMPTOMS”
By Laura Rizzotto, Josh Shpak & Pera Krstajic
It’s about time, the cycle is broken
I’ll let it scar, this tearing me open
No more short fixes
Band-aids and stitches won’t make this right
‘Cause I’m bleeding out while you make excuses
Your good intent is so fucking useless
Keep your well wishes
I’m burning bridges to save what’s mine
Tried to drown my intuition
But my body felt the signs
Symptoms of you all over my mind
And I’m sick of feeling crazy all the time
(CHORUS)
I’m starting over
I burned up all your pictures
Till there’s not a trace of you anymore
I’m getting closure
I cut up all your T-shirts
Tore that painting off the wall
‘Cause it’s yours
Taking my time, slowly unfolding
Reset my heart, no more diagnosing
WebMd quit on me
But I got remedies to feel fine
And I’m healing fast from this operation
Outdone myself as doctor and patient
I’m working double
To fix up the trouble you left behind
‘Cause when I drowned my intuition
Oh, my body felt the signs (ooooh)
Symptoms of you all over my mind (all over my mind)
And I’m sick of feeling crazy all the time
(CHORUS)
I’m starting over
I burned up all your pictures
Till there’s not a trace of you anymore (‘till there’s not a trace of you anymore)
I’m getting closure
I cut up all your T-shirts
Tore that painting off the wall, cause it’s yours (ooh I tore it off the wall ‘cause it’s yours)
(POST CHORUS)
Broke my heart, but fixed my vision
With surgical precision (no no no no)
That 20 20 is what I’m looking for (all that I’m looking for)
Now I’m happy to get no side effects from you anymore (anymore)
(CHORUS)
I’m starting over
I burned up all your pictures (na na na na)
Till there’s not a trace of you anymore (‘till there’s not a trace of you anymore)
I’m getting closure
I cut up all your T-shirts (I cut your T-shirt)
Tore that painting off the wall, cause it’s yours (na na na na)
Pa-pa pa-da-pa-pa-pa-pa
Pa-da-pa-da pa-da-dum
Pa-da-pum
Pa-pa pa-da-pa-pa-pa-pa
Pa-da-pa-da pa-da-dum
Pa-da-pum
