I feel the saliva dry up my throat
Mind over matter
Your lips taste as dead as a flower
I can’t raise my baby here
Such a shame his brain is a one-sided mirror
I knew it, I know I should’ve seen it comin’
Spawning right within the focus of my vision
Just ‘cause you were right, doesn’t prove me wrong
You’re the one who’s been lying to yourself
I’m the one who’s been trying to make it better
Now I feel like your hand tightened the zip ties around my wrists
One more step further brings another threat to pull me back under
I can’t raise my baby here
Such a shame my own brain is a one-sided mirror
I knew it, I know I’ve lost my imagination
Like an ember stuck in the fire of frustration
Slippery tiles under the floorboards of my patience
Just ‘cause you were right, doesn’t prove me wrong
You’re the one who’s been lying to yourself
You’re the one who’s been lying to yourself
You’re the one who’s been lying to yourself
