lyrics

Trying to find the words all over again
Trying on the shadow like a second skin and I know it's unsettling
While I'm writing to document
A fever in my head and a pain in my bed
And I know I'm catastrophizing

Let it all go
Why do we lament
It's just a little character development
In and out on every side
We double down on a fleeting life
And we know it's all coming off, exposed

It's all the more unusual
When you ask people
What their seaching for
And you know it's nothing
That they had before

It's a skill you have to mold
They rarely listen but they're often told
And they know, it's all devastating

You're always running with
The wrong crowd
Fake it to ya make it
So devastated
Rejecting it but want it
And you're on it

You're running on the right track
But they can't see it
Completely defeated
You want to burn it down
To the ground
