Split Tongue

My hope is in the dirt And I'm falling from the clouds But when I hit the floor I won't have to hear the sound of your duplicity My pendulum swings when you're around Sometimes I need a hand but you're the one that put me down I can't see the truth, is it me or you You twist my words, break me down - we're through All the pride you have is from the weight I carried I don't need to feel so guilty for getting better, I'm better without me The impact of my mental state is like a knockout to the ground I took my face to the pavement, but you helped stomp me out with your dishonesty I can finally call you out - on the broken confidence you poured until it made me drown I can't see the truth, is it me or you You twist my words, break me down - we're through All the pride you have is from the weight I carried I don't need to feel so guilty for getting better, I'm better without me There's no love lost You've never started healing From these signs Of disdain and treason Could take all our lives To put back the pieces I'll just accept the weather At least I'm getting better
