I found out the soul's the last to go
All the colors draining from the world I've known
And all my careful calculations scattered on the wind
Cause you told me I was special,
I wanted to believe
Took your words, I felt the weight of gold
Surrendered to my faith and love so bold
You built for me a pedestal,
a cage I could not see
You
relinquished my ambitions so you could still feel free
Now who am I?
These bones and skin, this old facade
Is paper thin, my armor redepleted,
my soldiers have deserted
I've given all I have to you,
I've carved myself into the mold I thought that I could fit in
But I'm never gonna fit in,
so take it or leave it,
I'm out,
I'm done bleeding for you
Smoothing over ruptures, lies and greed
Searching for my pardon and my place to take
the blame It's exhausting and demeaning,
swallowing the
shame Now who am I?
These bones and skin,
this old facade Is paper thin,
my armor redepleted,
my soldiers
have deserted I've given all I have to you,
I've carved
myself into the mold I thought that I could fit in
But I'm never gonna fit in,
so take it or leave it,
I'm out,
I'm done bleeding for you
