It’s like I’m caught in between the words you speak
And the expectations you keep out of reach
Over and over I try to see your point of view
So skewed towards keeping me beneath you

I lost my head trying to breathe underneath your gravity
I won’t reach out to hold a hand that never gave for me

If you’re here to tell me who I should be, fuck you
I’ve made mistakes and I still do
I’ve got the will to improve, and that’s a whole lot more than I can say for you
If you’d take the time to look between the lines
you’d find that I’m an open book for every eye
But all you do is try to erase and rewrite, ‘cause nothing changes your mind
Nothing changes your mind

You can keep your cries for attention behind your teeth
and bite down on your tongue until it bleeds
You’re not as real as you’d like to think. (I lost my head)
Such a sorry excuse for a personality. (I lost my head)

I lost my head trying to breathe underneath your gravity
I won’t reach out to hold a hand that never gave for me

You’ve snaked your way inside my head one too many times
I won’t sit quiet while you run my life down to something so black and white
I think it’s time you read between the lines
