Where were you when I was all alone at your backdoor
Did you hear me screaming at your guise
Trying to get beneath your core
Now I’m wasting space beneath my psyche
Trying to get back to a mind that’s right
I know your just fine
Staying disinclined
To give back what was mine
Cause you’re not here now
(pulling me down again)
And there’s no fear now
(pulling me down)
I only wanted honesty
That offered me some closure
I hated all your ethics
As a slave to your composure
You’re always playing the martyr
I’m always sitting a few steps behind
And this space feels vacant
Stuck somewhere in between
What I thought was enough for you
My only hope was to see this through
Through the rise and imminent fall
