Running With Scissors

[Verse 1]
You make me feel like I’m running with scissors
Heart on the edge of a bad decision
Laughing it off but my hands keep shaking
Is this real or am I faking
I’m so confused
My mind’s in the mirror
Talking to glass just to feel you nearer
Writing your name in the fog of the shower
Watching it fade in a couple hours
[Chorus]
Please help me out
Please talk to me
We can work this out
Why can’t you see
I’m right here now
On my bloody knees
We can work this out
Why can’t you see
[Verse 2]
You slam the door
I rewind the moment
Play it again till my thoughts get swollen
Every word sharp like the edge of a promise
Cutting me deep every time you dodge it
I spin in circles on our bedroom carpet
Phone in my hand but I still can’t call yet
Silence is loud and it’s pulling me under
Still I keep screaming your name like thunder
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[half-time
Distorted whispers]
Running
Running
Running in place
Paper cuts all over my faith
If you turn around
Will you stay
Or just watch me tear away
[Chorus]

Chorus drops into heavy wobble bass and chopped vocal bits, with layered harmonies on the hook. Energy arcs from tense and vulnerable to cathartic and wild, with a short half-time bridge for a headbang moment before the final chorus., dubstep, j-pop, nu metal
