Penned Up Lyrics

You stripped all my color

Now I bleed grey

As if it's all my fault

Your subconscious is your adversary

Cave in the drywall

Replace and replay

The moment in my head you said it all would be okay

I never thought that I would pray

That this would go away

And when it gets too late

Fixate on my mistakes until I learn my place

Kinda fun now isn't it

Fees like a punishment

When you wrap your arms around me

Feel your embrace before the knife enters slowly

I feel so apprehended

This fence is far from mended

Hold and listen up closely

Yeah this mood is far from doing it for me

And like my father says

There is no second best

And like my mothers eyes

I try so hard to be kind

And like my father says

There is no second best

And like my mothers eyes

I try so hard

I never thought that I would pray

That this would go away

And when it gets too late

Fixate on my mistakes until I learn my place

I can change

Cash me in and watch you spend

All of your time breaking promises you'll never mend

I want a source from the inside

Being a fly on the wall in my own life

I've been contemplating

Backed me into a corner

No longer part of my circle

I knew that someone would get hurt

Cast me aside like a stranger

Feel my heart beating with anger

Out of my chest then on to the floor

I knew that someone would get hurt
