Thomas Djossou - Break (Lights Out) lyrics

[Verse 1] Welcome to my quicksand floored, gla** box Where the only thing that can save you is stop moving and pray it stops I stay awake How could I sleep knowing so much more awaits Been so long since I last saw the broad day Only way I can go is down, might suffocate Before I bounce back, find myself in the same place Different scene, running the same play Behind the gla**, always the same still faces Emotionless, they just stand there staring What's wrong, my clothes? Have I got something in my teeth? Do I walk funny to you? Do I talk funny to you? And so standing there, I sink can't run can't hide can't scream The music's too loud, I can't think or was that my wown heart beating? I can't even tell Pain isn't real if it's physical right? No one could understand Just let me out [Verse 2] Shut the door and shut the lights This is a dead-end as real as it gets This is 20 shotguns aimed at my heart Set to go off at the first wrong step But what's a wrong step if not a step out of line And what's a bullet if not looks of disapprobation Look at you, I mean me, I mean the reflection I'm just saying, why am I still so driven by the need to satisfy my parents Sheeps, if you keep running toward the cliff you better off down there 16 and you still headed nowhere You ain't got a job, goals or a perspective You got okay grades, but look, life is unfair If you didn't have this mirror, who would you be talking to right now? Do you think anybody cares how you feel right now? You want to be left alone but you don't want to be lonely Because when you and the world meet You don't really know what it wants from you Be yourself, not like that though Every day you spend being who they want you to be You look in the mirror and you don't like what you see But most importantly, how can you stop becoming who they need you to be To be accepted?
