iNSTEAD!

You stare at me like I'm brain-dead
"Dr. Bad News" came with meds
Think I'm suffocating underwater, bad enough
Empty promises and lies are made with deeper cuts
I'm okay, unafraid
When my lungs collapse, it's overkill

To whom you wrote
I hope they choke on words that broke me
And when they ghost, keep playing dead

Bite my tongue instead
Instead
Instead
Let it burn the open wounds in you
Bite it instead

Every tragic tales you've told
Became my clarity that I've known
That feeling, something breathing under my bed
Something breathing next to my head instead

You always pick the best times
To drop every worst lines
Celebrate the scars and ones to come
Caving in like everything is breaking
One by one, gone blink of an eye

To whom you wrote
I hope they choke on words that broke me
And when they ghost, keep playing dead

Bite my tongue instead
Instead
Instead
Let it burn the open wounds in you
Bite it instead

An empty house with mirrors show
I can't be loud when no one knows, woah

Instead
Instead
Let it burn the open wounds in you
Bite it instead
Every tragic tales you've told
Became my clarity that I've known
That feeling, something breathing under my bed
Something breathing next to my head instead
