[Verse]

So what about it?

Was it not enough pain that I

Kept from you all to myself?

I wouldn’t doubt it

If I’m going insane then I’m

Sorry for crying for help


[Pre-Chorus]

But I could not testify

To my own shameful crimes

So lock me away and I’ll waste the time

Asking myself

“What if I get old

And everything changes?”

And deep in my memories

I’m tired of cherishing

Is every time someone told me it would

All be okay

When I find home

In faraway places


[Chorus]

If someday these walls break

I’ve already planned my escape

I’ll be waiting

And I’ll savе

The innocent space in my soul

So you know that it’s yours


[Verse]

So what about you?

Wеre you calling my name or just

Abusing a sensitive word

I can’t live without you

But I can’t live with myself when I’m

Using you just to feel heard


[Pre-Chorus]

And I could not testify

To my own shameful crimes

So lock me away and I’ll

Wait ‘til I see you again

When I get old

And everything changes

And all that you said to me

Kept me from measuring

The weight that I placed on the

Shoulders of everyone else

Thank you, and I

Hope you forget me


[Chorus]

‘Cause even if these walls break

They’ll leave me dead by the gate

I’m not worth saving

But I’ll pray

The innocent space in my soul

Swallows me whole

In the end
