Born a blacklist

My shadow made plain

You saw me as perfect

Despite my mistakes

Sewn in the throes of your pain

An anchor of love to keep me from drifting away

Visions of your final page have plagued me

Now I'm flippin' through the chapters again

Forgiving and so tender (It's only right, it's only right)

Unconditional, forever (Until the end, my work is done)

I missed my chance and now it's welling up inside of me

We open the floodgates and drown in our words

Maybe now my sorrows can ventilate again

I promise it wasn't in vain

I promised the path that I walk wouldn't be the same

Every step, misplaced

I brought back

I swear I can do it again

Undisciplined and infectious (We all are, we all are)

We lose control and it wrecks us (We can mend and make amends)

I've brought you shame so many times now

I don't know if you'll ever see me the same way again

Listen up

Listen up, dear

Listen up

Tell me what's been goin' on

You opened your heart, showed your soul

It shouldn't be a burden you hold

We're fighting our reflection (We all are, we all are)

We're grievin' for our fiction (Release yourself, it's for your health)

Your door was closed, I opened mine

Already crushed by our loss

Can I forgive myself for not choosing a better time?

I know you won't be the first

And damned if we won't be the last

The things we can't undo

Can't become our undoing

Benevolent mother, your sister is here

Benevolent mother, your sister is here

Benevolent mother, your sister is here
