Playing Dead

[Intro]
I'm stuck in a cycle, stop pulling me in
I just can't find the strength I need to carry
I wasn't good enough then
How will I ever be now?

[Verse 1]
Would it kill me to just hear you out for once?
With lies I can't convince myself to stay
As the words you wrap around me eat away
It's crippling, I'm wearing thin
Is it worth the pain or should I run away?
If I get it wrong then it's on display

[Chorus]
I'm stuck in a cycle, stop pulling me in
I just can't find the strength I need to carry
The weight (The weight)
I'm always running in place (Away, away)
I'm always running away
(I'm always running away from everyone and everything)

[Verse 2]
You fold, I break
This game was another mistake and
I'll stay in this paranoid state with the words I say
That keep me awake
You go, I'll wait
Sleep off all the stress that eats away
You'll just keep running through my mind 'till I forget your face

[Chorus]
I'm stuck in a cycle, stop pulling me in
I just can't find the strength I need to carry
The weight (The weight)
I'm always running in place (Away, away)
I'm always running away

[Bridge]
'Cause I'm playing dead again
And I guess this never ends
I'm still lost inside my head
'Cause I'm still lost inside my...

[Outro]
Would it kill me to just hear you out for once?
With lies I can't convince myself to stay
As the words you wrap around me eat away
It's crippling, I'm wearing thin
Is it worth the pain or should I run away?
If I get it wrong then it's on display
