I'll show you what I mean. Family doesnt mean a thing

cant spill a word in my head
without pissing you off instead

just listen to me
watch me show you
everythings only surface pretty

and i fucking hate these things
which break you down
and make you bleed

but even worse,
i hate you for me

the way you think
everything means nothing to me

we're only surface pretty
we're only skin deep

but i cant tell you the truth
assuming i blame the worst on you
and i know its nothing you can control
doing everything in your power to be the one to hold

while you keep me on hold
only being able to beat around the bush
not fall through

the words only fall through
what i can really tell you

im stressed as hell
trying to get out of this hell
shallow breath keeping my finger tips
from skimming the surface

but its isnt worth this
you asked me why i want to leave
wondering what really got the best of me

believing you could anchor
when youre really pushing me out to sea.
