Lyrics: Kelly Rae Boyer
Music: Kelly Rae Boyer
One step forward and another two back
Keeping distance slipping through the cracks
Playing to your role and paying with your soul
Check the boxes,reading between the lines
Acting like you're just one of a kind
Think I don't know you?
You're playing a part too
Don't understand
You keep on reaching for me
Then pull back your hand
Cling to your lie
You know it always falls apart
In time
Think I'm clueless to your "naivety"?
Sink your teeth and get the drop on me
The toy you're making
But I'm never breaking
I can see that hollow look in your eyes
Hiding all the pain you so deny
You trying hard to
But I don't believe you
Toeing the line
Of this fimilar feeling thatβs robbing me blind
Is it a crime?
If I just let it fall apart
This time
Run run run keep on running away
You're locked in a cycle turning day after day
Stay in your bubble
Keep pretending you really thrive best prepare cause you've barely survived
So you think you understand me?
Think you see just what I am?
There's nothing else underneath
And we'll be damned
But I can live with the trauma
Wait and see I'll thrive
Best prepare,cause you've barely survived
Still think I can't understand you?
Think you see just what I am?
There's nothing else underneath
Don't pull that sham
Don't have to carry that trauma
You don't have to be stuck in this prison
Why won't you just listen to me
Out looking in
Is it so awful knowing what we could've been?
Etched in your heart
I should have seen it from the start
Broken in two
Don't look at me like that as you never knew
Turn on a dime
You'll see how fast you fall apart
This time
