Hitting my stride for the first and only time Why is it that they only talk to me when I step over the line? And every day, it's small talk laced with no more than just a taste Maybe I'm just vacant real estate Out of sight out of mind Who are you? I don't know you Blood on the threshold I pass through Empty space, and you're gone without a lie Who am I to ever wonder why I'm going at this alone? And in your eyes, I come up short, yet I'm drowning in mock support You said your piece, now shut up and let me be wrong a million times more Faith borrowed sleeps tomorrow Trust rotten, not soon forgotten And I can feel the pressure build Looking back on every single drop you spilled I never wanted this to tear us apart, but here we are Stitching up what's left Thinking in circles is the weight that's gonna end me I know the center, I remember the periphery Tip-toeing in the sand from where you split the sea Keep repeating that I make it hard for you to love me Why do all my worst fears come true? When did I stray and lose you? Skin thicker, quicksand quicker Swallow too much pride, you'll get sick And this time, I won't hold your head You're less important than the former skin I've shed I wasted all my time repeating what you said "You need to disregard your heart and trust your head"
