Anytime time I ask for something casual
Someone else’s weight comes rolling through to take me out
Too often there’s a mirror showing past mistakes
Can’t bear to look anymore
didn’t think I was ahead that far
I’m done waiting on a miracle for a pivotal change
Know our feelings just a feeling (not a right of way)
Though many are justified for those who carry that will
But more are losing focus on how they deal
Suppose we just Forgive and forget
Neither side knows how to do that
Having grown skin that’s harder than wax
You’re gonna need a sharper knife
X2
To cut it off clean
I reckon a reckoning
Of virtuous optimality
To show that I really don't care im
stepping down
Some points are bound to fold
If no one breaks bread with the highs and lows
Thus why it’s not safe to say
we all mess up
Force a smile and never what’s true
