Shifting

Once upon a time
I was living in denial
Slowly disappearing in the depths of their eyes
Considering every step of my life
How did I stay alive?
But I reached out to the stars
To see what's left of my heart

I am always shifting
When my skin is burning me
I am always shifting
Try to read between the lines
Can't you see the silence is my darkest ally
Can't you see the patterns
Draining me til my last breath

Once upon a time
I was living in disguise
Slowly disappearing in the depths of their mind
Considering every step of my life, how did I stay alive?
But I reached out to the sky
To seek what's left of my heart

I am always shifting
When my skin is burning me
I am always shifting
Try to read between the lines
Can't you see the silence is my darkest ally
Can't you see the patterns
Draining me til my last breath
I am always shifting
When my skin is burning me
I am always shifting
Try to read between the lines
Can't you see the silence is my darkest ally
Can't you see the patterns
Draining me til my last breath
