I’m toppling over the lies that you pave
Saying you’ll change but its all the same
You tell me its love, no it hate
In the worse way
I have to decide
Whether I need to escape
Or maybe I should hide
But I cant say Im blind
To the reasons why
I know that youre struggling deep inside
But I’m out of time
Im out of cries
Youre like a drop of dye
Into water
Once I let you in
I cant get you out again
I can never win
But I keep raising my chin
Because I know I cant dwell
On whatever this is
As far as i can tell
You only bring me hell
My body is a product
Being sold on a shelf
Struggling with the things I’ve been told
Untangling the lies they wove
Reaching for the ceiling
I cant tell what I’m feeling
Confused and bleeding
I’m searching for what you call
Positivity
I’m ready to fall
I’m breaking through walls
To finally find
That I am enough
