habits

I'll laugh at their jokes when I talk to your friends
Act like it's too soon when the party finally ends
I'll preach your words, pick up your habits
Shadow your actions
Pretend I'm still the favourite

We could just play pretend
Again and again and again 'til the end
Hide our feelings inside, sweep it under the rug and then

Push it down
Could throw a match on the timber just to watch the flames flicker
But we push it down
Could stop the lies and the torment
Tell me you've been ignoring me for days now but I'm right here
You don't need to feel that fear
We're not going anywhere
Or is that just me?
Your habits are hard to read

I laughed in the silence when I should have cried
Maybe then you'd see the ways I'd already lied
I copied your words and thoughts and phrases
(copied your words and thoughts and phrases)
Perfect mimic
I was lost in myself for ages

We could just play pretend
Again and again and again 'til the end
Hide our feelings inside, sweep it under the rug and then

Push it down
Could throw a match on the timber just to watch the flames flicker
But we push it down
Could stop the lies and the torment
Tell me you've been ignoring me for days now but I'm right here
You don't need to feel that fear
We're not going anywhere
Or is that just me?
Your habits are hard to read

Our foolish games we never agreed to play
Led us to a path we might not want to take
This wasn't fair to either of us from the start
You never fall apart (never in front of me)
I always show my heart (not just a tiny piece)

We could just play pretend
Again and again and again 'til the end

Push it down
Could throw a match on the timber just to watch the flames flicker
But we push it down
Could stop the lies and the torment
Tell me you've been ignoring me for days now but I'm right here
You don't need to feel that fear
We're not going anywhere
Or is that just me?
Your habits are hard to read
