Rub it in, Ensure the stain
No rain that could wash it away
Pull the mask down and hide your face
Take the pain, learn to push it away
And, hey
Tell it to yourself enough and you can make it all true
But if it’s yourself you’re fooling, are you the fooling or fooled?
It’s all the same
Cuz either way
I guess the joke is on you.
Exposed, laid on display
Atop that bed that you made
Could never tell the love from the blame
Easier just to push it away
It’s all the same.

Oh, What’s that saying about a chain and it’s links?
I’d make my point if you could feel as strong as You think
One that bends into your head til it sticks
Instead I bite my tongue til I bleed
Forgot your lines? What you scripted you’d say?
Not the turnout that you’d hoped for your little charade?
Lone audience, we’re at the stories end
Nowhere to run away
Can’t call it chance because it’s never been missed
You’re bottom of your mind, they’re at the top of your list
You leave out seeds so the birds can feed
While you wither to bits
Know it’s just the part that you’ve chosen to play
The one you’re left alone with at the end of the day
You leave out seeds so the birds can feed
While you wither away
Give all your seeds so you’ll never know
What could become if you let a seed grow

Fight to find a crack to break this mold
That has its hold on me and take control
Time and time again I try but I know
I just keep on comin, runnin back to the old
What never ends
It can never begin
Guess I learned the meaning of the word again, again
It’s hard to know
When it all feels the same
But the sun seems lower than yesterday
It’s hard to know
When it all feels the same
But the sun seems lower today
And now all I see
Is in shades of grey
The colors, they all but fade away
Fight to find a crack to break this mold
That has its hold on me take control

Treading Water

Jump on in, the water feels great!
Absolve the sins that you have yet to create
Is it really swimming if you’re goin with the flow?
Who cares where you’re headin if you ain’t going alone
You dream of being smarter
You dream of feeling stronger
You dream of just…
You dream of just being more
You dream of being martyred
You dream of treading water
But your feet…
Your feet are touching the floor
Better to play it safe
Than swim against the waves
You’ve longed for so long for something that feels like
Something you’d call home
Change your face to fit the crowd
And pray nobody will know
You dream of being smarter
You dream of feeling stronger
You dream of just…
You dream of just being more
You dream of being martyred
You dream of treading water
But your feet…
Your feet are touching the floor
