[Verse 1]

Seventeen, I would dream I kept it all together

Out of touch, in the clouds, didn't know better

Clarity ease my mind, tell me everything's fine

Was a fool to think I would never change in time

[Chorus]

Pull the thread to watch it unravel, lose my handle

Fall apart and try to regather what I scattered

[Verse 2]

I was young and naive, caught in place, tethered

Couldn't stand on two feet, fragile as a feather

[Chorus]

Rip the rug from underneath me, I'll keep sinking

Strip away my sense of meaning, I won't feel it

[Bridge]

Thought I knew what I wanted

Thought I knew who I was

Chalk it up to bad timing

Call it whatever you want

I was only a moment

Before returning to dust

[Chorus]

Pull the thread to watch it unravel, lose my handle

Fall apart and try to regather what I scattered

Rip the rug from underneath me, I'll keep sinking

Strip away my sense of meaning, I won't feel it
