You twist the knife But I take the fall Somehow I’m always the one to lose it all You fucked my life You took my pride But still I stay Do you even see the monster you’ve made? You’ve Made You twist the knife But I take the fall (Take the fall) Somehow I’m always the one to lose it all (Lose it all) You fucked my life You took my pride But still I stay (But still I stay) Do you even see the monster you’ve made? You’ve Made

[chorus] [female] You twist the knife But I take the fall Somehow I’m always the one to lose it all You fucked my life You took my pride But still I stay Do you even see the monster you’ve made? [rap] [male] Every time you kiss me, your presence holds me firm But every time I miss you, I know my feelings aren’t returned You pull me from the ashes just to sit and watch me burn Cause every scar’s a lesson that you know I’ll never learn Your love is a ghost, haunting everything I do I’m always reaching out, but you’re just slipping through, My fingers like I’m reaching for sand in a tide, Grasping for the pieces, but never to find.

[Verse] In the mirror shards I see Pieces of what might be me No single frame can hold it tight Scattered faces in the night [Verse 2] Whispers from the mouths of ghosts Shape the paths I fear the most Hands that reach but never touch Letting go of what I clutch [Chorus] I’m invisible in the light Colored by their black and white Everyone’s a painter here Drawing lines that disappear [Verse 3] In the silence I scream loud Lost in echoes of the crowd Can’t find the person in between Lives I’ve lived and never seen [Bridge] Living shadows come and stay In my mind they gently sway Defining me then fading fast Like a story never asked [Verse 4] Walking roads with borrowed names I am more than their blames Yet the mirror doesn’t lie Fragmented pieces cannot hide
