[Verse 1]

Revelation

It lurks beneath, though it can't be seen

Peel back my skin to get a peek

Degradation

Of parts of me, ideals not reached

Self-fulfilling prophecy

Just get me out of my mind

I'm lost somewhere inside

Am I determined to hide

From anyone who gives a fuck?

Just let me self-destruct

While never coming undone

(While never coming undone)


[Chorus]

I know I'm not alone

But still, it's so hard to show

How I've felt and I've kept it all insidе myself

'Cause when thеre's love, I tend to run

I swore I'd never become

Who I am today, is it too late?


[Verse 2]

In spite of how hard I've tried

In no one, I confide

I'll just pretend and I'll lie

I'll say I'm fine, but it's a bluff

And no one's called it once

'Cause I'm not coming undone

(I'm never coming undone)


[Chorus]

I know I'm not alone

But still, it's so hard to show

How I've felt and I've kept it all inside myself

'Cause when there's love, I tend to run

I swore I'd never become

Who I am today, is it too late?


[Bridge]

Is it too late

For me to rip it apart?

Deconstruct the machine

I've built in my head

Crossing the wires

It says I'm better off dead

(I'm coming undone)


[Pre-Chorus]

I know I'm not alone

But still, it's so hard to show


[Chorus]

I know I'm not alone

But still, it's so hard to show

How I've felt and I've kept it all inside myself

'Cause when there's love, I tend to run

I swore I'd never become

Who I am today, is it too late?
