lyrics

Are you surprised
that we’re not so alike?
But that’s the funny thing about time
It ages our skin, it ages our minds
and now we’ve grown apart into two separate hearts

But you forget that I know you,
You’ve not changed a fraction
And you forget that it was always me
Following your reaction

Now that’s something I can’t do

Can you understand
Not everybody’s happy with their current standings?
I can’t handle your accusations, your sabotage
I’m not secure enough to ignore it,
You hit me hard

That’s just how I’ve always been

So how much further are you gonna push me down?

Can you understand
Not everybody’s happy with their current standings?
I can’t handle your accusations, your sabotage
I’m not secure enough to ignore it,
You hit me hard

That’s just how I’ve always been

I don’t want to end up like you
You push me further away from your wing
You make me feel so small,
Criticizing all I am and who I’ve always wanted to be
I’m scared of who I’m gonna be
You took the easy route

So how much further are you gonna push me down?

I can’t see a face I know
the longer you stay, the less that I grow

That’s something I can’t do
