Lyrics
A Victim Song
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.
You look at one two minds staring back in the mirror
You couldn't see for the fog and the fear in your
eyes
It's kinda quiet when the mind stops working you over
Like you sold the voices out for something real
Ever maybe Never maybe now
Chorus:
You're breaking inside you
The place in your mind that you never believe
And when the feeling is gone you
You try to move on but it's all that you breathe
Cause it's all been taking too long
You're mistaken You're wrong You're wrong You're wrong You're finding that doubting yourself is a victim song
Verse:
Before you go let me know if you're happy
pretending
Before you leave make believe that you know who you
are
Another time when you wind up knowing
That you can't keep going alone
With your silence you're defining all that's real
Never maybe now
