an Unkindness - Freedom, Pt. 2 lyrics
[an Unkindness - Freedom, Pt. 2 lyrics]
It is not about trying to change your mind
And it is not about the past you left behind
And how I cannot sleep because
You meant so much it's about your mind, what
You're afraid to touch, oh
What you're afraid to touch, oh
If you don't get what you want
You don't want anyone with it too
There's more than one on this planet
And we know that as well as you
You want to be right you want to be right
You want to be right
'Cause when you say goodbye to
A friend you left
It shouldn't hurt to cry about
The times you shared
So when you close your eyes
And see a giant mirror
Try to tell yourself, "I wish you were here"
Oh
And I'm falling short of my own reflection
And I'm falling down in the wrong direction
You could save yourself if you
Could listen to someone else
But as for me, I won't be coming back to Hell
You admit you have issues with your pride
And you think that's reason enough to
Let it swallow you up inside
How can you sleep knowing so much
Of yourself is built upon lies?
You won't see the truth
But, you could see it too
If you'd open your eyes
You want to be right you want to be right
You want to be right
'Cause you don't want to hear
When you've done something wrong
You just plug your ears and try to play along
But no one likes a cheat and you like no one
You've been on your turn for far too long, oh
And I'm falling short of my own reflection
And I'm falling down in the wrong direction
You could save yourself if you
Could listen to someone else
But as for me, I won't be coming back to Hell
Yeah, that's right
I won't be coming back to Hell
And I won't shut my mouth
Until I shut my head
And you won't scare me out of
All the goals I've set
And after time to think
I think I'm better now
I can climb without someone to drag me down
Oh you drag me down, oh
You drag me down you drag me down
And it is not about the past you left behind
And how I cannot sleep because
You meant so much it's about your mind, what
You're afraid to touch, oh
What you're afraid to touch, oh
If you don't get what you want
You don't want anyone with it too
There's more than one on this planet
And we know that as well as you
You want to be right you want to be right
You want to be right
'Cause when you say goodbye to
A friend you left
It shouldn't hurt to cry about
The times you shared
So when you close your eyes
And see a giant mirror
Try to tell yourself, "I wish you were here"
Oh
And I'm falling short of my own reflection
And I'm falling down in the wrong direction
You could save yourself if you
Could listen to someone else
But as for me, I won't be coming back to Hell
You admit you have issues with your pride
And you think that's reason enough to
Let it swallow you up inside
How can you sleep knowing so much
Of yourself is built upon lies?
You won't see the truth
But, you could see it too
If you'd open your eyes
You want to be right you want to be right
You want to be right
'Cause you don't want to hear
When you've done something wrong
You just plug your ears and try to play along
But no one likes a cheat and you like no one
You've been on your turn for far too long, oh
And I'm falling short of my own reflection
And I'm falling down in the wrong direction
You could save yourself if you
Could listen to someone else
But as for me, I won't be coming back to Hell
Yeah, that's right
I won't be coming back to Hell
And I won't shut my mouth
Until I shut my head
And you won't scare me out of
All the goals I've set
And after time to think
I think I'm better now
I can climb without someone to drag me down
Oh you drag me down, oh
You drag me down you drag me down
