[Verse 1]
I laid down a floor where your feet wouldn't freeze
I quieted the room just to give you some peace
I stood by the window and kept out the cold
Living out every promise I told
But you look at the walls like they're closing you in
Searching for scars where the story begins
You swear that I’m the worst part of your day
When I’m just trying to keep out your way
[Chorus]
And you pull down the sky just to blame me for the storm!
You wrap yourself up in the shadow that you form!
You blame your sadness on everyone close
And you tear me down but I love you the most
You fight every hand that’s trying to heal
Because you're terrified of the safety you feel!
[Verse 2]
You spin me around in a web of deceit,
And leave me with nothing but bitter defeat.
You push me aside as you make your demands,
While tearing to pieces the work of our hands
You say that you’re sinking, you say that you're blind
But you’re digging a trench in the back of your mind
Leaving me stranded out here on the edge
Defending myself from the words that you said
[Chorus]
And you pull down the sky just to blame me for the storm!
You wrap yourself up in the shadow that you form!
You blame your sadness on everyone close
And you tear me down but I love you the most
You fight every hand that’s trying to heal
Because you're terrified of the safety you feel!
[Bridge]
You don’t have a memory of anyone staying
You don’t know the words to the prayers I’m prayin
To you, a embrace is a trap or a cage
A language you can't understand or trace
You smash every mirror that you ever cared for
And ask what the hell I’m still standing there for
You can't recognize what you’ve never received
So you ruin the only thing left to believe
[Chorus]
And you pull down the sky just to blame me for the storm!
You wrap yourself up in the shadow that you form!
You blame your sadness on everyone close
And you tear me down but I love you the most
You fight every hand that’s trying to heal
Because you're terrified of the safety you feel!
[Outro]
I built it all right.
You broke it all down.
An invisible war you see all around.
You can’t accept what you never knew...
And I can’t love the phantom in you.
Arkh
