I have a rubber band ball snapping apart in the inside of my heart And in my mouth, hitting clinched teeth Being full of screams Their vibrations tumble down And I can feel each and every sound They pull on my veins And play them like guitar strings They tingle the scars Each one lighting up like stars They ring like church bells The sound unavoidable They sing a lullaby ‘Scream and cry, scream and cry Don’t you want to die It’s not easy to say goodbye Isn’t that why you lie? Break the ties Muffle your cries Turn all of your screams to sighs The anxiety will be over It’s just a lullaby'

Rubber Bands
I have a rubber band ball snapping apart in the inside of my heart And in my mouth, hitting clinched teeth Being full of screams Their vibrations tumble down And I can feel each and every sound They pull on my veins And play them like guitar strings They tingle the scars Each one lighting up like stars They ring like church bells The sound unavoidable They sing a lullaby ‘Scream and cry, scream and cry Don’t you want to die It’s not easy to say goodbye Isn’t that why you lie? Break the ties Muffle your cries Turn all of your screams to sighs The anxiety will be over It’s just a lullaby'
