Over and over you're trying something
Something you never felt before
Your pupils dilate and your skin is crawling
You separate the windows from the doors

Pretentious over-estimating all that you can never hide
And now the end is slowly waiting and it mentally divides

And you never can become you
If it's anything they wanted you to be
It gets a little harder when they show you what you should be

Regulate this new infection
It peels the skin right from your bones
A minor scar from your new incision
It keeps you grounded to the stone

Pretentious over-estimating all that you can never hide
And now the end is slowly waiting and it mentally divides

And you never can become you
If it's anything they wanted you to be
It gets a little harder when they show you what you should be

Kindness never took you away from what's real and what's fake
To separate the reasons lead you a way that they might not want you to be is you

And it's you, and it's you, and it's you

And you never can become you
If it's anything they wanted you to be
It gets a little harder when they show you what you should be
