loosing my skin
[Verse 1] You walk in the room already loading a case Ask me where this is, where that is Like I’m hiding your life in the cracks of this place Every question’s an ambush Every answer you twist into proof I’m sick You misplace your keys, your phone, your faith Somehow I’m the thief in it I say, “I don’t know where it is” You say that that’s what a liar would say I say, “Why would I even want it?” You roll your eyes, look away Now I’m chasing down ghosts in your closet Trying to prove I ain’t touched a thing How we end up in a shouting match ’Cause you lost your ring? [Chorus] You punish me for you For all the scars you never healed You see you in my face and You swing at me for what you feel I’m standing in the fire For flames that I did not set You blame me for your damage Then act like you just forget Yeah, you punish me for you Like I’m the one who made you bleed If you weren’t so self-absorbed Maybe you’d see what you did to me [Verse 2] You keep score in that notebook in your head Pages of “he lied”, “you leftn I’m a new name on an old list Paying tab for somebody else’s mess You say, “Men always take, always twist” I say, “I’m right here, I don’t run” You hear what he said, not what I said Every promise I make weighs a ton Accusations in your eyes like daggers aEvery “where were you?” comes sharp Like I snuck out with your worst fears And carved my name in your heart You snap, I flinch, you point, I fold Try to hold my temper in my hands How do I keep proving I’m innocent In a trial that never ends? [Chorus] You punish me for you For all the scars you never healed You see you in my face and You swing at me for what you feel I’m standing in the fire For flames that I did not set You blame me for your damage Then act like you just forget Yeah, you punish me for uou Like I’m the one who made you bleed If you weren’t so self-absorbed Maybe you’d see what you did to me [Bridge] I didn’t take what you lost Didn’t break what you miss Didn’t write that old story You keep reading me with I’m tired of the blame, the attitude The fight that never ends What happens next when you finally see I was only here to love you, not to make amends?
