Everyday Tragedy

[Intro – ]
How do you break when the pressure’s all mine?
You make paper cuts feel like landmines!

[Verse 1]
You called me cold for keeping calm,
But I’ve been holding back just to keep us from the storm.
You act like “the sky is falling” everyday,
And I just nod, “yeah, babe, i don't know what to say”
But I’ve got boxes in my chest I haven’t opened yet,
Filled with shit I never say so you won’t feel upset.
Like how I miss the dead, 
Or how this pressure has me scared I’ll drown,
In the silence that we’ve built just to keep from burning out.
That’s the end of the line,
And I’m the villain every single time.

You weaponize your moods like knives,
And I walk the edge just to survive.
Can't even say, "I'm not okay",
Without you turning it your way.

[Pre-Chorus – ]
You make storms out of rain
And I’m the one who takes the blame
So I shut down, play pretend
Hold it in so I not to offend—you

[Chorus – ]
'Cause everyday’s a tragedy,
Every breath, a new catastrophe.
You're drowning in the shallow end,
And I can't even call you out again.
It’s always a new crisis
And I can’t process what my life is.
You see the world through shattered glass,
And there’s no room for my collapse.

[Verse 2]
You take offense like it’s oxygen,
Need conflict just to feel alive again.
I tiptoe just to keep the peace,
Things aren't really that deep.
But every time I try to speak,
You twist my pain, i get it, I'm weak.
[Pre-Chorus – ]
You make storms out of rain
And I’m the one who takes the blame
So I shut down, play pretend
Hold it in so I not to offend—you

[Chorus – ]
'Cause everyday’s a tragedy,
Every breath, a new catastrophe.
You're drowning in the shallow end,
And I can't even call you out again.
It’s always a new crisis
And I can’t process what my life is.
You see the world through shattered glass,
And there’s no room for my collapse.

[Bridge – 
I’m done walking your minefield blind
I’m done pretending your chaos is fine
Every day’s a meltdown waiting to blow
And I’ve got nowhere left to go

You're not the only one who hurts!
But you never ask, you never learn!
You burn the house just to stay warm, like it or not, 
Then complain it's too hot.

[Pre-Chorus – ]
You make storms out of rain
And I’m the one who takes the blame
It’s not love, it’s just survival

[Chorus – ]
'Cause everyday’s a tragedy,
Every breath, a new catastrophe.
You're drowning in the shallow end,
And I can't even call you out again.
It’s always a new crisis
And I can’t process what my life is.
You see the world through shattered glass,
And there’s no room for my collapse.

[Outro – ]
It’s not love, it’s just survival
A one-sided war, no survival
You want sympathy, endlessly
But you never made space for me
