Tangled

I’m not broken, but my mind is wearing down

And I’m not broken, but your love can’t save me now

String me out a foot above the ground

Watching from above the clouds while

I wait for you to cut me down

You swore with no fires in your eyes

that you’d never give me up

Well, all bets are off, all promises are lost

The sound of silence could not pull me away

I’ll trade these memories of shame

In hopes that you’ll still let me breathe

Here I stand, an arms reach from the end

Lost in the sound of empty words you never meant,

and things you wish you never said

I found my home, and it was in me all along,

the words you spoke have made me strong

but hope was in me all along!

Feel me out, like footsteps in the crowd

Tangled up, can’t make a sound

If I begged you would you let me out?

Slipping in, slowly, in my skin…

I won’t let you pull me down

‘Cause when the flood waters reach

I’ll turn my back while you drown

The sound of silence could not pull me away

I’ll trade these memories of shame

In hopes that you’ll still let me breathe

Here I stand, an arms reach from the end

Lost in the sound of empty words you never meant,

and things you wish you never said

I found my home, and it was in me all along,

the words you spoke have made me strong,

but hope was in me all along. (In me all along…)

Where’s the sense in fighting what we know?

Girl, you never loved me

So wrap your arms around someone who gives you what you want

I’ve never been enough.

So bite your fucking tongue!

So don’t hold your breath, hold your breath!

Here I stand, an arms reach from the end

Lost in the sound of empty words you never meant,

and things you wish you never said

Here I stand, an arms reach from the end

Lost in the sound of empty words you never meant,

and things you wish you never said

I found my home, and it was in me all along,

the words you spoke have made me strong,

but hope was in me all along.
