This is the sound of the weight of my conscious slamming on the cold hard floor
This is the sound of the footsteps of my dignity sneaking out the backdoor
You were always incendiary
(I’m doused in regret)
And it seems we
burn and get burned in in fires we've set
And we give the most by what we don't take
You were always, my match
(My worst and favorite mistake)
And everything said that you think matters
(Is nothing but whispers in the wind)
Do you feel like your missing out
(If you only knew what was really going on)
If you knew what was happening behind closed doors and curtains
You’d find that nothing’s what you thought it was like.
Nothing Is certain
(Of only that I'm certain)
We think we know everything
But can you see what lies behind
(another’s closed eyes)
You were always incendiary
(I’m doused in regret)
And it seems we
burn and get burned in in fires we've set
And we give the most by what we don't take
You were always, my match
(My worst and favorite mistake)
(Todays current events
The talk of the town is a backstabbing
Every one saw it coming but the victim)
Everyones watching and standing around my cold body
(Brain Dead and rotting)
A part of me died that day and I left it where I lied
(It happened where you lied)
The other part walks among you
(Barely alive, dead inside)
Roll out the red carpet to pave the way for your indecency
Your glitter and sparkle facade allured me into your trap
You were always incendiary
(I’m doused in regret)
And it seems we
burn and get burned in in fires we've set
And we give the most by what we don't take
You were always, my match
(My worst and favorite mistake)
I put my insercurities to bed
But they won't sleep
They keep me up
They keep me restless
I try to walk with my chin held high
But my pride is limping from being thrown around
My voice is tired from screaming and not producing any sound
They say reach for the stars but
My dreams are all tethered to the ground
You were always incendiary
(I’m doused in regret)
And it seems we
burn and get burned in in fires we've set
And we give the most by what we don't take
You were always, my match
(My worst and favorite mistake)
You were always incendiary
(I’m doused in regret)
And it seems we
burn and get burned in in fires we've set
And we give the most by what we don't take
You were always, my match
(My worst and favorite mistake)
We burn and get burned in the fires we’ve set
(You set me alight)
We burn and get burned in the fires we’ve set
(You set me alight)
We burn and get burned in the fires we’ve set
(You set me alight)
(You set me alight)
(You set me alight)
This is the sound of
the weight of my conscious
slamming on the cold hard floor
