I'm not a fearful person, don't suffer from anxiety,
but lately I feel the weight of expectations. I think my back might break. For the first time, I look around and it's the outside world that's got me down.
I'm thinking to myself: is there a way back up from here?
Is there a silver lining to this cloud? Because I can't see it.
I am still holding onto a world that only exists in memories.
I can still hear them singing. Their voices ringing in my ears.
For the first time, I look around and it's the outside world that's got me down.
I'm thinking to myself: is here a way back up from here?
Is there a silver lining to this cloud? Because I can't see it.
Is there a silver lining to this year?

Say you want accountability.
Take some responsibility for anything you say or do,
because you've been lashing out.
You're holding onto all your fears and feeding your insecurities.
I'd love to trust you. Can't be the one to be the self-appointed maker of my disappointment.
Thought I could trust you, but it's too much to set myself up for,
and pick my expectations off the floor.
I won't do it anymore.
To me, your word's as good as dead.
Won't put my trust in you again.

Some people buy their time with pain.
Some will say there aren't enough hours in the day.
When they say goodbye, they go with regret and shame.
Some moths just need a brighter flame.
For better, or for worse, is what they'll say. Family or feeling free.
A sense of purpose is all that we need, but it doesn't have to go that way. Some will spend their lives avoiding shame.
Some will not allow their minds to lead them astray.
They'll look back at all they've built, and leave it just the same.
Some moths just need a brighter flame.
They'll occupy each hour in the day. Community. Priorities.
A sense of purpose is all that we need, but it doesn't have to go that way. Disapprove and look the other way, but I can't just shut up.
I won't do it.
The seething beams from your eyes.
They pierce through me like a knife.
Nobody sees my actions like you do.
