lyrics

push me away, i never wanted to stay in your kaleidoscope
seeing the grey, watching my colors fade in cycles till i choke

and i found the difference between purpose and pain
when i saw the distance that you and i maintain

are you feeling numb or just indifferent?
you look right through me with your empty eyes and two clenched fists
is this hard for you or has this come routine?
your cold shoulder lies and I have seen enough of this

tell me the truth: are you amused or has this gone too far for you?
stuck in your glue, watching the words you chew in tunnel vision gloom

and i found the difference between anger and insane
when you burned the bridges that you and i maintained

throw me out, hold me down
chew me out, i have seen enough of this
