Verse 1:
Is the truth in the pages
Or just from the words in your mouth
Was anything real
Or was it all just for the crowd
Why am I being punished
For questioning all of my doubt, doubt, doubt
Was anything real
Will all that is lost still be found
Pre-Chorus:
So I’ll stop myself, I know how this story ends
Black and white starts to feel gray again
And I’ll bite my tongue one more time
Chorus:
While I hold back all of the reasons
That I can’t say what I’m feeling
Cause it might slow down the healing
And I never wanted to make it hard
To find a way to the light
When we’re fighting the darkness inside
Oh I’m tired of drawing these lines
That I never wanted
While you make it hard to believe
Verse 2:
Why is blame always shifting
And nobody owning their part
Is there really freedom
If you’re staying blind from the start
Pre-Chorus:
So I’ll stop myself
I know how this story ends
Black and white start to feel gray again
And I’ll bite my tongue one more time
Chorus:
While I hold back all of the reasons
That I can’t say what I’m feeling
Cause it might slow down the healing
And I never wanted to make it hard
To find a way to the light
When we’re fighting the darkness inside
Oh I’m tired of drawing these lines
That I never wanted
While you make it hard to believe
Hard to believe
You make it hard to believe, to believe, to believe, oh
Bridge:
So I’ll change the way that this whole story will end
Break ties with all of these once a week friends
Pull myself out of this hell I’ve been living in, oh
Chorus:
And I’ll hold back all of the reasons
That I can’t say what I’m feeling
Cause it might slow down the healing
And I never wanted to make it hard
To find a way to the light
When we’re fighting the darkness inside
Oh I’m tired of drawing these lines
That I never wanted
While you make it hard to believe
