lyrics

drop subtle hints
remain absent from the moment
boxed in with your head down
peripheral vision leaving out everything wrong
you hide behind the flawed belief
of the way you think everyone should be
you make a mess of everything
if it means you won't have to speak up or say anything
speak up behind closed doors
paint the picture you know they can't ignore
you'll find a way to make things worse
and bring everyone down with you
you'll find a way to make things worse
and bring everyone down
slow movements encased in insecurity
self-aware of your self-doubt
but never how obvious you are
concerned and alert
prepared to not be enough for anyone
your voice shakes when you're about to break
you can't control your hands when you're faced with the truth
you hide behind the flawed belief
of the way you think everyone should be
you make a mess of everything
if it means you won't have to speak up or say anything
you'll find a way to make things worse
and bring everyone down with you
you'll find a way to make things worse
and bring everyone down
