lyrics

I swear to god in vain
I was constantly re-adjusting
just to not feel in the way
so I pushed myself to the edge
staring in the distance I almost walked right off it
then barely reeled myself back in

Because the shadows they seem
to have taking a liking to me
but I am not them
I just really fit in it seems

I swear to god in vain
I’m was constantly re-adjusting
just to not feel in the way
so I pushed myself to the edge
make myself at home there
I think I’m starting to like it
and that’s not helping anything

Now I’m switching timelines
to the womb from which I came
I swore to god in the rain
for a clean slate
In the dark night I find
a chrysalis turns into a butterfly
I’m more colorful than I am pain
and am better off awake
