Keeping up Appearances (feat. Terrible Sons)

I find some people don’t like the truth

And want to go away from you

I fall down deeper, there’s no excuse

Push you too far, you’re turning blue

Remember the days you tried to erase

The ones that I’d once forgiven

I pile on the weight, I’m watching you fade

I hold on to the ammunition

I can’t see outside my everyday annoyances

And you’ve flown far but I’ve barely moved at all

My hands tied up while I’m keeping up appearances

I’m really only thinking of myself

Run from my shadow but what’s the use

It just grows more each afternoon

I try and be better, but can’t undo

Act out from every little wound

I’m back here again stuck in my head

A barrel of contradictions

I’ve lost any sense, I have no defence

I’m trying, but lost my vision

I can’t see outside my everyday annoyances

And you’ve flown far but I’ve barely moved at all

My hands tied up while I’m keeping up appearances

I’m really only thinking of myself

At the end of each line is the start of you
