Ripcord

Time revealed what's underneath your skin

You only cared when the floor caved in

You know that I, I'd look for a reason

But it just starts arguments

I'm the candle when your lights burn out

Your assurance in the face of doubt

You pull me like a ripcord

Ignored, you're selfish 'til you need me more

Now all our trust is gone

So if we fall through the ground, right now

The consequences still roll out

Where all our trust is gone

Seems strong to carry on

With what I said

I tore into your skin

Mend your wounds, while I stitch my lips

It only hurts when the words sink in

It only hurts when the words sink in

Here we are again, 2 corners different ends

Hope it's a season, but it's likely permanent

I'm the candle when your lights burn out

I'm the shelter when your sky is falling down

You pull me like a ripcord

Ignored, you're selfish 'til you need me more

Now all our trust is gone

So if we fall through the ground, right now

The consequences still roll out

Where all our trust is gone

Seems strong to carry on

You wear a mask when I'm around

You lit a fire that my night sweats can't put out

Can't put out

You wear a mask when I'm around

You lit a fire that my night sweats can't put out (can't put it out)

I can't put it out

Now all our trust is gone

You pull me like a ripcord

Secured, I was hoping that you'd need me more

Now all our trust is gone

So if we fall through the ground, right now

I'm OK with how things will turn out

You're gone, seems strong to carry on
