Knavery - Cut Loose Lyrics

Hitting my stride for the first and only time
Why is it that they only talk to me when I step over the line?
And every day, it's small talk laced with no more than just a taste
Maybe I'm just vacant real estate
Out of sight out of mind

Who are you? I don't know you
Blood on the threshold I pass through

Empty space, and you're gone without a lie
Who am I to ever wonder why I'm going at this alone?
And in your eyes, I come up short, yet I'm drowning in mock support
You said your piece, now shut up and let me be wrong a million times more

Faith borrowed sleeps tomorrow
Trust rotten, not soon forgotten
And I can feel the pressure build
Looking back on every single drop you spilled
I never wanted this to tear us apart, but here we are
Stitching up what's left

Thinking in circles is the weight that's gonna end me
I know the center, I remember the periphery
Tip-toeing in the sand from where you split the sea
Keep repeating that I make it hard for you to love me

Why do all my worst fears come true?
When did I stray and lose you?

Skin thicker, quicksand quicker
Swallow too much pride, you'll get sick
And this time, I won't hold your head
You're less important than the former skin I've shed
I wasted all my time repeating what you said
"You need to disregard your heart and trust your head"
