[Verse 1] Used to like the quiet Now I’m scared of what it means Tried on all his colors Now they’re stitched into my seams Laughing when I hate it Saying “fine” when I’m not fine Gave away my edges Till my voice sounded like his line [Chorus] How did I end up in his second-hand skin? Can’t tell where he stops Can’t tell where I begin Mad at him Mad at me Yeah it’s wearing me thin But I’m peeling it back Slow I won’t live in his second-hand skin [Verse 2] Every little habit Rearranged to fit his mood Bit my tongue to keep the peace Called that compromise Not wound Now I’m sorting through the pieces On the floor of this small room What was mine What was borrowed What can still learn how to bloom [Chorus] [Bridge] Maybe I was lonely Maybe I was just so tired Let him write my story Till my own words all expired Now I’m learning how to listen To the quiet in my chest Not the echo of his anger Just a softer kind of yes [Chorus]
