lyrics

Mental acrobats
Twisting, distorting my way in and out of pain
Feelings are a tricky thing
Sometimes the horse pummels you

How long did it take to find someone right?
How short did it take to doubt you could be liked?

I punched wooden doors and concrete walls
I just can’t seem to fight them off
In an emotional free for all
Swinging till my knuckles are raw

Presenting like a lake
It won’t take long to see
past a crystal, smooth surface
to the scum and trash underneath

How long did it take to find someone right?
How short did it take to doubt you could be liked?

I punched wooden doors and concrete walls
I just can’t seem to fight them off
In an emotional free for all
Swinging till my knuckles are raw

My affect is bright
Though I walk through darkness
I’ll use these liquored smiles, to hide for a while
What kind of shield leaves you withered after a late night battle?
Still I go back

I punched wooden doors and concrete walls
I just can’t seem to fight them off
In an emotional free for all
Swinging till my knuckles are raw
