Tell me it’s okay I’ll find another body, it’s okay Numb on the surface and empty inside, just trying to escape from a life Without light Overwhelmed in hollow space, I should’ve known that it’s a lie When you tell me, I shouldn’t wait Trading your memories, for my piece of mind To get out of your hell you put me in mine Tell me it’s okay I’ll find another body, it’s okay I’ve witnessed eruptions on turmoil skin I thought I could mend your trauma but I didn’t know a thing Our scars match the brick wall where your knuckles pin Use your silence as a weapon, but I won’t cave in Trading your memories, for my piece of mind To get out of your hell you put me in mine Time won’t heal this so I did it for myself I hope it destroys you to be replaced by somebody else Tell me it’s okay I’ll find another body, it’s okay

Memories become coats of paint, Cover up one mistake with a different shade. Leave a chip in the foundation, Piece back another layer and ingrain something new to say About my pain 'Cause always feels like a lie And forevers such a long time Cynical cycle, don’t be surprised If my expectations and guards too high Won’t you piece back The cracks in my rose coloured glass So I can look at the new and not constantly see you Strings that bound us together Became the noose around my neck I haven’t kicked the chair out yet I haven’t given up yet But it takes courage to tremble, It takes too much guts to love again I can’t keep hearing, You're playing protector When you caused the rain, You’re not my shelter, You don’t get to chew me up and spit me out again Won’t you piece back The cracks in my rose coloured glass So I can look at the new and not constantly see you Strings that bound us together Became the noose around my neck I haven’t kicked the chair out yet

Centaur 03:57
Ive been searching, eyes locked on light When the clouds part, it's a new beginning Will the blood rush from my head? Or will I sink down in this bed and never face the dark days? I remember sleepless nights, like that was a reason to laugh and not to fight but now it's misery and AM delusions Rather than whispers between two beings I am barely human The silence makes me want to end it myself, Seize the lightening, take control on the hell Centred on loss Centred on us If empathy, is understanding a pain and not taking it away Am I doomed, to carry the weight? To bleed with the stories still left on this page Find me in the moments before dawn, screaming “hindsight is all wrong” How could you have seen any of this coming? If all my past decisions were tangled up in my words How am I supposed to deal with the one that was all yours? I’ve learnt to live with a lifetime of doubt, I no longer fill the corners of your house The air doesn’t burn anymore I’ve given up explaining places that don’t exist I just try to forget where they were What a shame I don’t believe in another life Or a second chance for us to change it all

Red flag or green light Chaos in comfort, another fight A past I’ve learned to let go And you’ve never felt like home I can’t grow A voice that you choked Change everything I’ve done Put poison in my blood Claiming you’re no saint A victim of what you created Now you’re lost No map needed Caution signs You’re not reading The same old patterns keep repeating I grow cold The same old patterns keep repeating as I watch you leaving Take back the chance or Give me a different answer Cause I’ve been playing on repeat The part where you start to leave
