tuning their mouth

They run their mouths I’m done with their shit So damn fed up, I’m turning to grit Now I’m running this beat into the ground I get back up for another round Up all night just to hear the quiet sound Taking my pills just to quiet my head Mind full of static, I’m seeing red Drinking a Banquet just to ease me Hitting my vape just to calm me Trying to get past the ones who wronged me Still sitting here, wanting love, still longing Got a phone, but nobody’s calling Everybody makes me feel like I’m falling But I keep my head high, won’t let myself stall Still feeling this weight on my shoulders [Chorus] I’m looking for love in a city of ghosts Calling your name, but the silence responds I gave you my heart, you left me a hole Now I wear every scar like a chain on my throat Who’s gonna stay when the lights burn out? Who’s gonna hold me when I’m losing ground? I keep reaching through smoke and doubt Looking for love, but it never comes around [Verse 2] Late nights, headlights, riding alone Phone in my hand, but I’m staring at home Everybody talks like they know what I know But nobody sees what I carry alone I gave too much, got left in the dust Started believing that nobody’s enough Built up a wall when they shattered my trust Now I’m turning this pain into something tough I don’t wanna hate, I just wanna heal Trying to figure out what the hell is real They took my heart, but they can’t take my will I’m still standing, still climbing that hill Every setback made me stronger somehow Used to look down, but I’m looking up now If they don’t love me, then that’s okay I’ll keep moving and find my own way [Chorus] I’m looking for love in a city of ghosts Calling your name, but the silence responds I gave you my heart, you left me a hole Now I wear every scar like a chain on my throat Who’s gonna stay when the lights burn out? Who’s gonna hold me when I’m losing ground? I keep reaching through smoke and doubt Looking for love, but it never comes around [Bridge] Maybe I’m not broken, maybe I’m bruised Maybe loneliness is all I’ve been used to I’ve been chasing a spark through the dead of night Trying to turn all this darkness to light If somebody finds me beneath all this pain I won’t run from the feeling, won’t hide away I’ve got one last piece of my heart to give After everything, I still wanna live [Outro] They can run their mouths, let ’em say what they say I ain’t giving all my energy away I’ve been through hell, but I’m finding my way Maybe love will find me someday For now I’m alone, but I’m not giving in Lost a few battles, but I’m still gonna win If the world goes quiet, I’ll sing through the doubt I was looking for love—now I’m finding my way out
