Guess Lyrics by Remi Wolf
I’m polite when I wake
And when I get upset
Keep a smile on my face
And a bomb in my chest
And it hurts how much I want
What I give away
Fly like a heartbeat above the ground
Just enough so I can tune you out
And the things that I don’t say out loud
Are like cobwebs in a haunted house
And I can’t eat, and I don’t sleep
I just dream awake
‘Til I splash the water on my face
Yeah, I was supposed to cling onto every word you said, but I’m nothing like your mother
Yeah, you were supposed to lose your head, but you’re nothing like my father
I couldn’t live up to the bar you set
I’m doing my best, but you’re never impressed
I never know what you expect
I’m banging my head tryna guess
Guess
Guess
I’m wasting my breath on you
Pouring myself out to get shut down
‘Cause nothing works like it used to
And we don’t feel like we used to feel
I want you to fight me
I need it to hurt to know that it’s real
Yeah, I was supposed to cling onto every word you said, but I’m nothing like your mother
Yeah, you were supposed to lose your head, but you’re nothing like my father
I couldn’t live up to the bar you set
I’m doing my best, but you’re never impressed
I never know what you expect
I’m banging my head tryna guess
Guess
All of me
Is tearing myself down
Am I in trouble now?
Fighting it all out and, baby
It’s all of me
Pouring it all out
‘Cause I was supposed to cling onto every word you said
I was supposed to cling onto every word you said
Guess
Guess
Guess
