Emergency Exit

You didn't take time, you weren't gentle
I said I felt fine, it's nothing special
I got to the punchline, you didn't meet me there

The laughter was hollow, I heard it echo
You're leaving tomorrow, so I let it go
I wanted to say so, but saying so was scarce

I can barely talk when I'm like this, I'm useless
I hate when I'm speechless
You take the advantage
It aches I can taste it
I can't get it out of my mouth

I can barely cry when I'm like this, I'm empty
You smile politely, convince me I like it
As I watch you leave with the version of me you designed
I said I felt fine

Everyone's angry, nobody's winning
You're selfish as always, it's self-fulfilling
I run through the hallways, the doors are locked and barred

I'm making my way out, use constellations
There's nothing to save now, you get impatient
The sunlight is choked out but I can see the stars

I can barely see when you're like this, it's vicious
Despite this my mission is forming a fist
I'm defining myself from the darkness and all that you are

I am barely me when you're like this
Remade in your likeness, your image
Your vision is flawless
I claw an emergency exit, I hope that it scars

I bet you don't think that I'm perfect anymore
I bet you wished you never kissed me
Ain't it funny all of the things that I ignored
When I thought that you really loved me
Ain't it funny I was a thing that you adored
Now I hope that you always miss me

I hope you feel bad the rest of your life
I hope that you cry and cry and cry
I hope you feel bad the rest of your life
I hope that you cry and cry and cry
