Gaslighting

Didn't you lay a clever ruse
Drawing me towards your light
Didn't you bet I'd play the fool?

(Low on trust but paralyzed)

Balancing through a wreck of moods
Praying to satisfy
Struggling for sufficient proof

(That our house held more than lies)

Truth scares me
When I have to burn the past to flee

Erasing these memories
Feels like going blind
(Never knowing)
If when we felt free
We were just confined
Trapped inside
Each other's lives

Stubbornly searching for a rule
Hoping that there's still time
Stuck at a table set for two

(Cartoon romance hypnotized)

Holding out for a sight of truth
Hanging on for the night
But if I soon slip back to you

(Promise not to touch the lights)

Truth scares me
When we have to burn the past to flee

Erasing these memories
Feels like going blind
(Never knowing)
If when we felt free
We were just confined
Trapped inside
Each other's lives

Please don't touch the lights
I am sane and I am breathing

Please don't touch the lights
When I am safe from the feeling
