[Intro — Sparse fingerpicked guitar, distant reverb] [Verse 1] Who are you? Really. Are you the you to me — To all the others you see? Or do you pick and choose Dependent on what others think? [Verse 2] I feel something heavy follow you Y'all square up every day — it's true One thing about me and how I move It's to the frequency — the tune The sounds of what you choose [Chorus — Haunting layered female vocals] It echoes — (Echoes, echoes, echoes) Until I'm bruised — sticks and stones Didn't serve their use against The betraying agony of Being used [Verse 3 — Restrained drums enter] Maybe you love me — I've never really known I thought you did a few times But then I was left alone Still you came home Atoned, I mean truly I thought trust had Finally been grown [Pre-Chorus — Tension rises] I thought you loved me And I thought it was shown But help I needed And to the wolves I was thrown [Chorus — Full emotional delivery] It echoes — (Echoes, echoes, echoes) Until I'm bruised — sticks and stones Didn't serve their use against The betraying agony of Being used [Bridge — Music drops to guitar and bass] How do I know? Will I ever? Is it ever gonna get better? Colder weather and Battered letters folded in stacks Of a time happy was just whatever [Outro — Soft, fading vocals] Tangled up In a world that Was ours together [Instrumental fade]
