Tying me in
Strapped to another mistake
Hide it with laughter
Slapped in the face
Trade it for anything
To keep me afloat
Fortify another lie
Make it a joke
Frustrating
To close to you
Won't stay away
Hollow words
Leaves me breathing
Shallow breath
Who we are
And what we try to be
Is fleeting
And our apathy
Is nurturing old habits
What we planned to do
Is gone
We try to change
Frustrating
To close to you
Won't stay away
Hollow words
Leaves me breathing
Shallow breath
