been a long way, so far to go

but you don’t need this anymore

I gotta let you know

the skin I wore before, I shed layers off

cut me to the core, left my spirit raw

been a long way, so far

open heart is too loud, so tone it down

sit in silence like me, don’t let it out

your name’s a river, I speak in drought

these bonds get weaker and we feel the doubt

hate needs cause I let mine slide

brain freeze when I see you cry

you say more, but I give you less

you keep score? look I’m taking L’s

feels cold inside

when it gets to me, I don’t let you breathe

I can’t confide

so I grit my teeth and I self-delete (fuck)
