in your ways

Lyrics

i've felt it on the sidelines, an ache i can't remove, perceived as unconditional, because i've tethered me to you, i tried to pull the weight, but you refused to lift a hand, and when i question it you say, "it's just the way i am", you wanna blame it, oh, you wanna blame it, on roots that keep you in the ground, but you can change it, i know you can change it, you have to pull yourself out, don't try to blame this, oh, don't try to blame this, on the badge of wounds you wear so proud, you are the one who decides, how this will turn out, i see it play out on repeat, the people that i love, become the people i can't reach, and in my attempt to empathize, i can't help but to internalize, end up taking on the crosses, they can't seem to bear alone, but now my arms have fallen weak, and i can't even pick up the phone, you wanna blame it, oh, you wanna blame it, on roots that keep you in the ground, but you can change it, i know you can change it, you have to pull yourself out, don't try to blame this, oh, don't try to blame this, on the badge of wounds you wear so proud, you are the one who decides, how this will turn out, you're losing us, you're losing me, you're losing touch
