Driftwood


I tried to save you from this
Save you from yourself
I learned that it was pointless
Dragged myself through hell
For you
I do regret
All the time wasted
Took so long to realize
But now I'm cutting ties

Here we are
Can't say that I'm surprised
Kept me like an insect in a jar
Never to be out of your sight

Pull the rope so tight
And you don't care at all
You pulled with all your might
Kick the chair to fall
Lost the will to fight
Can't even see what used to be
With the mess you've made of me

Lied to myself about this
About our drifting health
Couldn't take much more of it
Pain inflicted with stealth

Went through every day
Spoke through gritted teeth
Not much to say anyway
With the truth buried underneath
(Buried underneath)

Pull the rope so tight
And you don't care at all
You pulled with all your might
kick the chair to fall
Lost the will to fight
Can't even see what used to be
With the mess you've made of me

You pull me back in
Clinging to never let go
Dug your nails into my skin
Acts of Kindness, all for show

You pull the rope so tight
And you don't care at all
Pull with all your might
Kick the chair to fall
Lost the will to fight
Can't even see what used to be
With the mess you've made of me
