Call My Bluff

Intro / Hook
Used to listen to Cupid but I’m starting to feel like he’s the boy that cried wolf (cried wolf, yeah)
I said “I’m ready to die” why does everyone call my bluff (call my bluff)
Every day I know I’ll never be enough (never enough)
Every day it’s getting more and more tough (so tough)
To get out of bed but you still call my bluff (still my bluff)

Verse 1
Paint on a smile like it’s glued to my face (yeah)
Walking in circles, I’m stuck in a maze (I’m stuck)
They see me laughing, they think that I’m safe (they do)
Whole time I’m fighting a war in my brain (my brain)
I joke about death, they repeat what I say (ha-ha)
Turn all my pain into lines they replay (replay)
If I said I’m drowning, would anyone stay? (would they?)
Or watch from the shore while I fade away (fade away)

Hook
They hear my voice but they don’t hear the plea (don’t hear me)
I say I’m fine but it’s killing me (killing me)
Clap for the mask that I wear on the scene (applause)
Nobody sees what’s behind the screen (no one)

Verse 2
Night gets quiet and it’s loud in my head (too loud)
Thoughts spinning circles when I’m laying in bed (can’t rest)
Everybody think I’m cool cause I’m fed (I’m fed)
But starving for peace, got me misled (misled)
I act okay, yeah I play my part (roleplay)
Cracks in the glass but they miss the shards (they miss it)
Screaming inside from the start (from the start)
Just want relief from the weight in my heart (my heart)

Hook
They hear my voice but they don’t hear the plea (don’t hear me)
I say I’m fine but it’s killing me (killing me)
Clap for the mask that I wear on the scene (applause)
Nobody sees what’s behind the screen (no one)

Bridge
I don’t wanna vanish, I just want the ache gone (ache gone)
Tired of pretending that I’m so strong (so strong)
If I drop the act, would it take that long (how long?)
For somebody to notice something’s wrong (please notice)

Outro / Hook
Used to listen to Cupid but I’m starting to feel like he’s the boy that cried wolf (cried wolf, yeah)
I said “I’m ready to die” why does everyone call my bluff (call my bluff)
Every day I know I’ll never be enough (never enough)
Every day it’s getting more and more tough (so tough)
To get out of bed but you still call my bluff (still my bluff…)
