Leaking

Maybe it’s my fault

For not getting what’s so difficult

I’m not deviating from the typical

Or am I the only one who thought

 

That we were both adults

That we all know to listen and to talk

Did common sense escape your clutch

Am I the only one who thought

 

I’m done

Talking to myself

If there’s no change

 

Why

Am I still screaming at the walls

It’s like your ears have fallen off

I can’t get through

There’s something leaking from your skull

 

Why

Is it just me against your world

You’ve never seen this type of girl?

I’m breaking loose

The girl you thought you knew

Is gone

 

So what if I grew up

And I became someone that you can’t recognize

I wasn’t a blank slate for you to write

In the first place, I am “mine”

 

You don’t get to choose for me

You don’t get to set my place in society

If you still honestly believe

After everything you’ve seen

That my world should revolve on your decree

In the first place, well, then, fine

 

I’m done

Talking to myself

When there’s no change

 

Why

Am I still screaming at the walls

It’s like your ears have fallen off

I can’t get through

There’s something leaking from your skull

 

Why

Is it just me against your world

You’ve never seen this type of girl?

I’m breaking loose

The girl you thought you knew

Is gone

 

You don’t get to choose for me

And if you still believe

After everything you’ve seen

 

You don’t get to hold a leash

The world isn’t as crazy as you seem to think

 

It’s just you so

Why

Am I still screaming at the walls

It’s like your ears have fallen off

I can’t get through

There’s something leaking from your skull

(It’s just you)

Why

Am I still screaming at the walls

It’s like your ears have fallen off

I can’t get through

There’s something leaking from your skull

(It’s just you)

Why

Is it just me against your world

You’ve never seen this type of girl?

I’m breaking loose

The girl you thought you knew

Is gone

It’s just you
