Inertia

Give a little, get nothing back
Feel so brittle you could collapse
Tell yourself in the mirror, "can you just relax?"
And you'll never feel settled in
Sitting comfortably in your skin
Tell me honestly when you'll take all of that in

Can't ever be yourself, the way you see yourself
The way you act like you're too good to ever treat yourself
You never ask for help
And you get overwhelmed
And then you make it out to be about the hand you're dealt
The stars ain't misaligned
You've just near lost your mind
Your head is bigger than the space in which you occupy
It makes you dizzy, yeah yeah, yeah yeah
Just take it easy, yeah yeah, yeah yeah

I can't heal, but I can't give it up
I don't feel, but I'm afraid to jump
Stuck in here, and I think it's because (Now I'm numb)
I can't heal, but I can't give it up
They don't feel the pain I've overcome
It's not real, don't think it ever was

Give up on all you love before it's all begun
Would rather suffer instead of working hard enough
You'll start to wear away, give others hell to pay
For all the stress inside your head that only you create
I'm holding my breath, hoping you'll get to
Give it your best in all that you do
Accepting pity, yeah yeah, yeah yeah
Too fucking easy, yeah yeah, yeah yeah

I can't heal, but I can't give it up (Oooh)
I don't feel, but I'm afraid to jump
Stuck in here, and I think it's because (Now I'm numb)
I can't heal, but I can't give it up (I can't, I can't, I can't)
They don't feel the pain I've overcome (They won't, they won't, they won't)
It's not real, don't think it ever was

Give a little, get nothing back
Feel so brittle you could collapse
Oh, when will, when will you take all of that in?
