Not Like This

[Verse 1] You build me up with your sweet disguise But your love tastes like poison pies Breathing fumes from your empty words Broken wings on a caged wild bird [Chorus] I scream but the sound gets swallowed whole A firestorm burning in my fractured soul You say “I care” but it’s just a mask Not like this No I’ll never ask [Verse 2] Your touch feels like a shattered glass Cutting through this heart too fast Fingers trace where the bruises bloom A fragile girl in a crowded room [Chorus] I scream but the sound gets swallowed whole A firestorm burning in my fractured soul You say “I care” but it’s just a mask Not like this No I’ll never ask [Bridge] You carve your name like a scar on my skin Your twisted love A bittersweet sin I wear my anger like a crown of thorns Through your darkness I’ll be reborn [Chorus] I scream but the sound gets swallowed whole A firestorm burning in my fractured soul You say “I care” but it’s just a mask Not like this No I’ll never ask
