Heart's too

Used to being lonely

Stuck in muscle memory

No one really knows me

Is my independence

Coming back to bite me

Do you really like me?

Or are we pretending?

I'm a performer

That's what I know how to do

But is it stopping

Me getting close to you?

I'm a performer

Got myself cornered

Put on my armor

Just like my mother and father.

Multiple versions

Of the same person

All of them hurting

Don't think the performance is working.

Every time I try to

Be more vulnerable

It's like I hit a wall

Can't go any further

I don't wish this

On anyone

It's gone on way too long

Patterns unbreakable.

I'm a performer

Got myself cornered

Put on my armor

Just like my mother and father.

Multiple versions

Of the same person

All of them hurting

Don't think the performance is working.
