The Suitcase

Lyrics

Birds in my head try to take control Must be some kind of virus A memory I can't reset The future's bright with the past behind But I'm stuck in this strange station Dampening the years I can't get back [Chorus] Oh, I can't seem to fight it Or try to hide it The state I'm in Someone's out to get me Not protect me She always wins Mama left me her old suitcase It was tethered to her heartbreak [Verse 2] Tears rolled down with her last breath There goеs my Goliath Who's gonna take on all the blame? I can't lеt go if I can't move on It's strange, these guilty feelings Her disapproval made me say [Chorus] Oh, I can't seem to fight it Or try to hide it The state I'm in Someone's out to get me Not protect me She always wins [Bridge] I never knew the morning sun 'Cause you kept your sky so grey And the victim you portrayed Never wanted to leave Who am I if I'm not in pain? I feel like such a coward Don't even know if this is mine [Chorus] Oh, I can't seem to fight it Or try to hide it The state I'm in Someone's out to get me Not protect me She always wins [Outro] Mama left me her old suitcase And all the guilt you left inside It was tethered to her heartbreak Right through the heart of mine Mama left me her old suitcase Never wanted to say goodbye It was filled with all her weight
