Cement

(album: The Way We Are - 2019)

You're a mess, I'm a wreck
It's the way we are
Drag you down cause I'm cement
Weighing down your heart
Let's pretend we're not upset
Try to move past these scars
Fall asleep and just forget
Never gonna get that far

This silence is deafening me
Drowning out all that we need

Don't know why we put ourselves through hell
To convince us we're not fading
I don't think I'm ever letting go
It's not love but I'm still waiting

You break down, I don't sleep
Talking's just too hard
Hold your breath, we're in too deep
Sinking through the dark
Wishing we could turn back time
Try it again I guess?
Just sit back and push rewind
Never gonna fix this mess

This silence is deafening me
Drowning out all that we need

Don't know why we put ourselves through hell
To convince us we're not fading
I don't think I'm ever letting go
It's not love but I'm still waiting

I don't wanna drag you down again
Cause I'm around your ankle
I'm pulling you under

Don't know why we put ourselves through hell
Can't admit that we're just fading

Don't know why we put ourselves through hell
To convince us we're not fading
I don't think I'm ever letting go
It's not love but I'm still waiting

You're a mess, I'm a wreck
It's the way we are
