Bending the Air

[Verse 1] I’ve been running from the truth The floor won’t hold me steady I keep my hands in my pockets Like that could hide it I feel the tension bending the air Every room turns smaller And your name stays on my tongue Like a warning light [Pre-Chorus] I can’t fake a calm face Not tonight Every step gets louder In my mind [Chorus] I feel the tension Bending the air I feel the pressure Rising in my chest Bending the air Bending the air I can’t stay hidden Not anymore [Verse 2] The mirror says it plain now I’m tired of the guessing I’ve been swallowing the signs Since the first crack showed Your eyes don’t miss a thing That’s what scares me most You see the break in me Before I speak [Pre-Chorus] I can’t fake a calm face Not tonight Every step gets louder In my mind [Chorus] I feel the tension Bending the air I feel the pressure Rising in my chest Bending the air Bending the air I can’t stay hidden Not anymore [Bridge] If I say it out loud Will it split me open? If I let it fall Will I finally breathe? No more running circles No more half-truths I’m standing right here With my hands up [Final Chorus] I feel the tension Bending the air I feel the pressure Rising in my chest Bending the air Bending the air I can’t stay hidden Not anymore I’m done with the truth I’m done with the fear
