lyrics

Caught in the middle, walking a tightrope
Cut this thing loose so I can just go home
I give and give and give all of myself
Well I’d give, I’d give anything to feel fulfilled
I’m spreading myself thin
Just to be broken by this wind
The candles have all burned out
And I’m filled to the brim with self-doubt
Lock the door and toss the key
So I can be by myself
At least then I won’t waste all of me
For someone else’s own wealth
This force of habit’s wearing me
Into the shell of a person
I’m done with martyring myself
When I can’t even feel content
I’ve been emptied
of all remaining sympathy
So please just bury me
for the peace of this silencing
