Worn

Self-worth
Someone told me that it wouldn't hurt
if you brought yourself to see that you're making a difference, you're loved & creative...
I said what's that mean?
Maybe that shit was lost in my teens
What's left of me?
When I'm locked in my head painting pictures that were filled with my dreams?
Keep myself in a blur
Got my head spinning round and round
To convince myself I'm better off, better off, better off being...

Can anybody hear me underneath the floor?
I can't unsee
The way that you saved him
Just like you did with me
So tell me when there's light at the end
Because I'm not climbing out of this one
I've worn myself callous
Checking my checking my
Insecurities

Because honestly, I'm not sure how to value myself
When you saught shelter in my mansion I gave you my keys
Took me down to the river to seek out my reflection
For a short time, I saw a man that was burning with, burning with passion
But you kept me out of reach
Too far to touch but bright enough to see

I can't unsee
The way that you saved him
Just like you did with me
So tell me when there's light at the end
Because I'm not climbing out of this one
I've worn myself callous

On solid ground
I rest my eyes while I listen to you
Exhale the poison from your lungs
I breathe
The air through the mask that's been keeping me whole
Since you've been keeping me whole

I can't unsee
The way that you saved him
Just like you did with me
So tell me when there's light at the end
Because I'm not climbing out of this one
I've worn myself callous
Checking my checking my...
