Lyrics

Mother learned to teach suppress, so neat
Restrain, give up control
I hide my teeth so you don't see my threat, my gaze
Keep your head down, keep to yourself
Don't attract unwanted attention
Self-regulate 'fore it's too late
You can't be dressed like that
And I've been trapped inside these sentences for so long
Stagnating behind the other side of your door
Waiting quietly for someone to see me
Decaying behind the other side of your door
I spent my life trying to please
Hiding the lesions you made
Bandaging up my open wounds
So you're not bothered by me
I try so hard to live like you
Like I'm not bleeding on the floor
Free from the cage I helped create
Why did you make me do that?
And I've been trapped inside these sentences for so long
Stagnating behind the other side of your door
Waiting quietly for someone to see me
Decaying behind the other side of your door
And I learned from my mother, from your mother, from her mother
And you don't seem too bothered, seem too bothered, seem too bothered
That we'll always be the other, not your brother, not your mother
I'm not
You're not
You're not there
I'm not, you're not
You say you're not but I'm not, I'm not
You're not thinking
And I've been trapped inside these sentences for so long
Stagnating behind the other side of your door
And I won't stand behind you
Eat my guilt just for you
Cuz I can't live behind the other side of your door
The other side of your door
