You made it a habit to breathe through your chest Your skin tailored too tightly, your bones kept arrest Finding the worst in the best Because I can't help but notice you're losing your voice Pins and needles persist as you walk on white noise You used to be bitter by choice List the things you love Cross out every one You sat still as you should And watched the decor hit the living room floor Count the corners of Your steepest obstacles And like father like son You're pulling when push comes to shove You needed more Stepping back through the hoops you set out in good times Well you grew and you grew in yourself, you're confined Turning your chin to the sky So let this God-given guilt Grace the weight on my shoulder blades In third person, I struggle for one point of view Colour code my perception of you List the things you love Cross out every one You sat still as you should And watched the decor hit the living room floor Count the corners of Your steepest obstacles And like father like son You're pulling when push comes to shove You're pulling when push comes to shove You needed more (ow!) I've got too much to live for And it's just getting heavier Forget all the features of each face I meet Wish me away like a dandelion seed
