Lyrics

I've been living in my head With unwanted guests The more I ignore them, the more they appear It's claustrophobic at its best There are no boundaries here Intrusive thoughts have space to roam Reclaiming my own autonomy has been a grueling process And it's a damn burden to carry the weight of it all Break me down just to build yourself up A façade of many kinds Faked insanity just to gain sympathy You didn't want us to reveal your guise There are no gentle hands here I've been pushed far off the deep end I'm headed full speed to hit rock bottom while spiraling fast And it's a damn burden to carry the weight of it all I carry that weight I carry that— The day when gravity falls You'll be the first to buckle You've never had to deal with Any consequence or struggle As you ripped petals off flowers They were still beautiful After pushing through the dirt To be disposable When I walked into that garden I was blinded by roses I thought that I was safe But I was cradled in thorns I thought if I made a home there It'd start to be comfortable I learned the hard way not to Put all my weight in a fragile coward
