Ruse
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'm still craving all the thoughts inside your mind
You're always screaming
I understand you don't want me in your life
But I'm on the edge with all of this
Now I'm caving in and I can't progress
So tell me again, is this what you wanted?
Is it ever enough?
We go back and forth, playing this game without trust
And all I know is this constant distance
It's not you I see through
You said I'm never enough
But I'm still caving in
Does it bring you pleasure knowing that I'm never coming back?
You emptied me and I'm tearing at the seams
And you'll never understand
And you'll never understand
Is it ever enough?
We go back and forth, playing this game without trust
And all I know is this constant distance
It's not you I see through
You said I'm never enough
But I'm still caving in
But I'm still caving in
But I'm still caving in
While I've been drifting away
You've been back home finding somewhere else to stay
If only my words, they held any weight
If only my words, they held any weight
