Lyrics

Recently, I feel alone
Chains I make on my own
There’s a life I don’t know

Tired of biting back my tongue
A dream of saying what I want—
In front of everyone
I will have won!

I can’t blame anyone else
For restrictions I put on myself
Many would prefer my compliance
Dismissing all my feelings of defiance

And if they do? What do I care? I shouldn’t
But I might hurt a bit inside who wouldn’t?
I say it’s in the past but it’s not true
My heart is on my sleeve for all to view

And you make me cry so easily
I should’ve known
Want to keep up this secrecy
But my heart overflows

Oh and these fears inside of me
Rampage and grow
I’m losing sight of everything
Need to let go

And I’m going blind
I’ll lose my mind
So I’ll head back home
Where I am safe
Alone

Living in shadows of belief
Never will it let me find relief
No more suffering in silence
Wishing I had more guidance

I say I love myself— I am unique
But then I always turn the other cheek
For things I care about I am weak
And that’s why you make me cry easily

Yes—
You make me cry so easily
I should’ve known
Want to keep up this secrecy
But my heart overflows

Oh and these fears inside of me
Rampage and grow
I’m losing sight of everything
Need to let go

I need to be free
I’ll send out a plea
So I’ll head back home
Where I am safe
And known
