Sleepless, staring up through the ceiling
We come from the mud, so there's reason
To bite the hand that was feeding
The hand of a god who wasn't enough
He wasn't enough to cover the blood
To hand out the healing, who severed his love
But kept you in touch, who kept you believing?
Who said you weren't trying?
I knew that you were
But I watched you shape shift
Change to your needs
Saw all the faces
Used to hide your grief
I watched you change
Felt my ego caving in
We're covered in mud
So there's no sense in hiding your suffering
By the hand of a man who wasn't enough
He was never enough to give you the love
To give you that feeling, whose venomous touch
By the hand of a gun that kept you believing
Who said you weren't worth it?
I knew that you were
But I watched you shape shift
And change to your needs
Saw all the faces used to hide your grief
I watched you change, twist your faith
Lose yourself in precarious ways
All your shape shifting to run away
And there was nothing I could do
There was nothing I could do, right?
Nothing I could do
Nothing I could do
So sick of calling out and never hearing back
Sometimes is easier to run and not react (that's a fact)
But there was nothing I could do
Tell me what you knew
The world was just so cruel to you
Well it's hereditary
Sick of forcing smiles never looking back
A luxury I never really had and that's a fact
There's nothing I could do, yeah
Tell me what you knew
The world was just so cruel to you
Well it's Hereditary
I watched you shape shift (shape shift)
And change to your needs
Saw all the faces used to hide your grief
I watched you change
