On the Inside

I've been living in a crack in the wall
Four months, three days
Hey, look at that, four and three make seven
This could be my lucky break
I've been living in a crack in the wall
They do say karma's a bitch
We cut each other deep
Now I'm behind the scenes
Tryna mend our ramshackle family
Oh, I love you, sisters
Not a day goes by that I don't
Cross my fingers that I stay alive
On the inside
As shattered as my prophecies
On the inside
I'm clinging to my fantasies
On the inside
A withering apology
'Cause I love you, Mama
But you just let me leave

On the inside

I've been living in a crack in the wall
Has God forgotten me too?
A pinch of salt and the Holy Writ
Ain't enough to conceal the foul taste on my lips because
I've been living in a crack in the wall
I-I-I I think I'm losing my mind
I've got a niece who can hear every sigh
And I wish that I could just suck it up and die
It's so hard not to be bitter
But I've been trying my best
I understand
I understand
But I just wanna be a person again
Oh, I just wanna be a person again

On the inside
As shattered as my prophecies
On the inside
I'm clinging to my fantasies
On the inside
A withering apology
'Cause I love you, Mama
But you just let me leave

On the inside
