Outbound

I used to think this is what I wanted

But it's so much more than I bargained for

See from the outside it sparkles and shines

So why do i feel so broken and sore

Cause I've found out it's counterfeit

Why am I scared to question it

There's so much left to say

Always something in the way

But maybe it was meant to end up like this

You keep letting me down

Right when I find hope

Swore we were inbound

But it was all smoke

Yeah you can blame it all on circumstance

But I gave it everything I had

Now everything is clear to me

You can't talk

You can't talk me out of it

Oh to be young and naive

To not owe you one single thing

And it's my fault, filled my wounds up with salt

So now it's my liability

Took the path that pursued me

Choosing passion over everything

I hold on for the challenge

I hope it's worth the damage

Is it giving up or admitting what I've known

(Cause you still let me down)

Right when I find hope

Swore we were inbound

But it was all smoke

Yeah you can blame it all on circumstance

But I gave it everything I had

Now everything is clear to me

You can't talk

You can't talk me out of it

The truth I'll never let you know

I'll never let you know

There's no use so just let me go

So just let me go

Cause nothing can keep me up, keep me feeling righteous

Have I reached clarity or am I stuck in crisis

You keep letting me down

Right when I find hope

Swore we were inbound

But it was all smoke

Yeah you can blame it all on circumstance

But I gave it everything I had

Now everything is clear to me

You can't talk

You can't talk me out of it
