Kuiper - The Badlands Lyrics

I'm more than familiar with that side of me
Selfish and cold I never wanted you to see
But you saw right through me and I
Never thought that I was worth a f*cking thing
Sometimes I still question
If I chose the path of inner clarity

I braced myself as my whole world crashed down
All around me like the walls of reality

I never wanted you to see the
Pitiful broken side of me but
I fight my demons daily and I can't defeat them
Bloody water flows but I never make it
I just started focusing on
Everything that I knew I could be
No matter what you say you still play the victim
Just like someone made you turn so indifferent

Mark my words
I've been sitting on all this for long enough
I brought a tale of deception with me
It took me way too long just to call your bluff
It's not me
Who needs to check myself and reassess the ties that bind
You have a lot of shit that you won't let go
But it's time to read between the lines

Break away from all you know
Cause it's obvious
That you don't see the way you disassociate
It hurts more than I've shown
But its obvious
It's obvious

You're so obsessed with yourself
You can't even stop to think about the ones that you burn

I'm so embarrassed for you
Somehow you think the words you say explain the things that you do
I don't think so
You're wrong and you know it
You can't help but show it
True colors are starting to show themselves

Take what they have told you let it
Mold and control you as it
Deepens the hole you fell in
Oh you're such a waste
Take what they have told you let it
Mold and control you as it
Deepens the hole you fell in
Oh you're such a waste

Break away from all you know
Cause it's obvious
That you don't see the way you disassociate
It hurts more than I've shown
But its obvious
It's obvious

I'm so embarrassed for you
Somehow you think the words you say explain the things that you do
I don't think so
You're wrong and you know it
You can't help but show it
True colors are starting to show themselves
