Barbed Wire ft. NǑVA Lyrics

Oceans of silence between everything we are Never a moment that I'm not the one that gets

Hurt

Used to lie in your arms as you fed me and looked after me

Now those nights I'm out drinking it's cause

I can't escape

All of the people who say I'm not enough

All of the isolation in my own house

The way you don't stick up for me anymore

The way I'm seventeen and not four

You love to make me the bad guy

It gives you some kind of thrill

I spend time and time drinking

Trying to fill a hole I know I won't fill

People tell me I'm amazing

But then they treat me like crap This fake kindness is such a tire

I'm so sick of just being as useless as barbed wire

You watch the rhythm in me unfold

You want a doctor or a real estate agent

You can't see me for who I am But lord knows you'd never be damned to say it

I'm not your little princess You held in your arms this baby girl has grown up

I'm a powerful woman now

Now I'm looking at my phone

I'm so sick of feeling alone

I got people in my life that don't do anything but lie

Oh no, I'm on the floor all alone You love to make me the bad guy

It gives you some kind of thrill

I spend time and time drinking

Trying to fill a hole I know I won't fill

People tell me I'm amazing

But then they treat me like crap This fake kindness is such a tire

I'm so sick of just being as useless as barbed wire

Pushing, trying so hard not to be called my old self again

By people who are just as freaking flawed as I am

Holding on to usage I mistook for true love

Making myself crazy

Cause I keep putting you above me

You love to make me the bad guy It gives you some kind of thrill

I spend time and time drinking Trying to fill a hole I know I won't fill

People tell me I'm amazing

But then they treat me like crap

This fake kindness is such a tire I'm so sick of just being as useless as barbed wire

I'm so sick of just being as useless as barbed wire
