Your age doesn't constitute how you see me and how you perceive me.
In fact you're more destitute than the vices you cling to and voices you push through.
Never romanticize your screams.
Pick a fight that you'll lose too quickly.
Never knew amends could be made so tricky,
But I can bend, yeah I'm a sophomore slump.
I'm growing numb; I'm growing numb
I'd be better at trading hearts than trading lungs.
Be better at trading hearts than trading lungs.
My chest has faced better storms than what you have dealt me and how you resent me.
Such ruse that you seldom use; to weaken defenses; self-pity feels relentless.
Pushing out, then in.
In the safety of your sins.
Push it out again.
It's a fight you can't win.
