Favourite Cliché

Tick talk
Tick talk

We buried my Dad
And then I heard you say
There's no need to worry
The pain goes away
But could you please spare me
Your favourite cliché
Cuz I am still hurting
On day eighty eight

Listening to you
Was an honest mistake
I'm waiting and waiting
How long will it take?
I look in the mirror
And say am I awake?
I barely remember
My age or my name

Broken
Yeah I've been broken
Every time I hear your cliché spoken
Is it gonna heal or leave me bent and
Broken
Yeah I've been broken
Every time you see my scars are open
Am I gonna hear your cliché spoken

Tick talk
Tick talk
Tick talk
Tick talk

When looking for pain
Yeah guess what
I found it
It's like when you're flying
But tryna stay grounded
When you fed me those lines
And you like how you sounded
You felt like they fit
Just as good as your crown did

Emotional pain
Yeah there's no way around it
It's surrounds us all
Just turn round and
Drown it
My fist through the door
In my room yeah I
Pounded it
Pounded it
Pounded it
How did it

Come to this place
Where I'm looking for pain
Maybe I'll hit the brakes
Or let's say I switch lanes
Maybe I can come up
With my own favourite cliché
LIke I can find peace
In the midst of the pain

Broken
Yeah I've been broken
Every time I hear your cliché spoken
Is it gonna heal or leave me bent and
Broken
Yeah I've been broken
Every time you see my scars are open
Am I gonna hear your cliché spoken

Tick talk
Tick talk
Tick talk
Tick talk

If tragedy is here to teach me
Philosophy that seems so dark
Now there's another way
To reach me
And it only took a spark

Yeah I've been Broken
(I was broken)
Yeah I've been broken
(By words you've spoken)
Every time I hear your cliché spoken
Is it gonna heal or leave me bent and
Broken
(I was broken)
Yeah I've been broken
(By words you've spoken)
Every time you see my scars are open
Am I gonna hear your cliché spoken

Tick talk
Tick talk

I'm no longer broken
Won't let your words soak in
