[Verse 1] The seasons don’t respect you They peel your colors clean You bargain with the daylight Like time can be redeemed You kick against the calendar As if the days might bleed You stare into the mirror Ask “Who taught you to plead?” [Pre-Chorus] You spin in circles Changing coats Changing names Every month a new costume Same ache Same shame [Chorus] You try every dance Every garment To cover the hollow you harbor But the seam keeps splitting Yeah The truth keeps slipping through You wave that regret like a warning But it’s rust in your pocket Not armor Pull a trigger to my head I’m not scared of it I’m scared of ending up like you [Verse 2] You worship your reflection Load your faith into a pose You flex your little kingdom While the winter eats your home You talk about survival Like a war you never fought Built a bunker out of stories Never questioned what you’re not [Pre-Chorus] You spin in circles Changing masks Changing frames Every joke a deflection Same bruise Same blame [Chorus] You try every dance Every garment To cover the hollow you harbor But the seam keeps splitting Yeah The truth keeps slipping through You wave that regret like a warning But it’s rust in your pocket Not armor Pull a trigger to my head I’m not scared of it I’m scared of ending up like you [Bridge] Maybe one day When the last costume tears When the last drink is quiet And there’s nobody there You’ll meet the stranger You kept under the bed You’ll say “I regret” And mean what you said [Chorus] You try every dance Every garment To cover the hollow you harbor But the seam keeps splitting And the truth keeps slipping through Your regret hangs heavy and silent Like a coat you can’t grow into Hold a weapon to my head I don’t flinch I’ve paid my dues I won’t die inside Just to live like you
