Undercurrent

I never bent for anyone
Only thats a lie Im trying to hide

I run from pain
And Im going insane
Try to fill the void, try to keep it in
The thing that I regret
Is what I havent said

And so I stay but should be leaving
I only learn when I am bleeding
I want to dance in my own shoes instead
Slow down, you said
I shake my head

Undercurrent: rise!
I try to hold on but Im losing my mind
Undercurrent: rise!
Pull me open, bring me to life

And I watch it stain
Just to see
How we bleed

Im so tired of the bind and blame
Work it out, play the game
I want to belong
But somethings always wrong

I can tell by the look in your eyes
Three words alone wont make us rhyme
I tried to let it go
But still my heart wont ache, I feel no pain

Undercurrent: rise!
I try to hold on but Im losing my mind
Undercurrent: rise!
Pull me open, make me see
Bring me to life

I just want to lose control
Dont want to fake whats real
Deep inside we both know who we are
Yet fear the things we feel

Nothing cuts like clarity
The knife of truth, it hurts
But I hate the thoughts you make me think
And choke upon my words

Im on the outside and Im looking in
Wanna go where I havent been
So I let my shadow thwart your aim
Ive come too far to stay the same

Still on the outside and looking in
With a knife Im cutting every string
I hope that you can understand
I dont want to hold your hand

Undercurrent: rise!
I try to hold on but Im losing my mind
Undercurrent: rise!
Pull me open, make me see
Bring me to life
