lyrics
You spit me like poison in your mouth
Used me to cut through your drought.
You played me like a Russian roulette,
gun is always empty pointing so close
to my head.
You broke me like glass in the sunlight,
Dusting the surface of cracking time.
You messed me up so deep and so hard,
might as well've pushed me, against
the mud.
And yet, I am your savior,
Gaslighting myself through your mind.
Losing myself inside your own.
Eccentric diversions.
Cut me into pieces reflecting yourself
When nobody else would save you.
Lying in my bed I’m confused and so scared,
blaming myself almost let you.
You don’t get to tell me how great it’ll be,
when I’m still trying to get you out of
my skin.
You touched me like it was my last time
While nailing my hands to the foam.
You gave me so much yet so few,
got me thinking starving
Was the only way to get to you.
Still, I am your savior,
Gaslighting myself through your mind.
Losing myself inside your own
Eccentric diversions.
Cut me into pieces reflecting yourself
When nobody else would save you.
Lying in my bed I’m confused and so scared,
blaming myself almost let you.
You don’t get to tell me how great it’ll be,
when I’m still trying to get you out of
my skin.
I hope you get stuck in the middle
Begging for forgiveness
Cut me into pieces reflecting yourself
When nobody else would save you.
Lying in my bed I’m confused and so scared,
blaming myself almost let you.
You don’t get to tell me how great it’ll be,
when I’m still trying to get you out of
my skin.
