Sedatives - Like Pacific

It could’ve been worse

I could’ve been you

I could have gone to such great lengths

Mislead the distances it took to follow suit

Burn in effigy, no you’re no spectacle of empathy

Washing both my hands just to rid of you

I’ve got a lot to lose and you’re starting to bend the truth

Your eyes are so grey

Tunnel vision, I only see you this way

And it won’t change

Taking sedatives, repetitive

Till the light of day

But to you, it’s dark here in my room

It could’ve been worse

I said wanted my own space

Whether or not I shared it with you

I was a book and you read one page

I was overlooked

Can’t understand the knots in your noose

I overheard the lies that slipped through

You live in disarray

(But you’re stuck in your ways!)

Your eyes are so grey

Tunnel vision, I only see you this way

And it won’t change

Taking sedatives, repetitive

Till the light of day

But to you, it’s dark here in my room

It could have been worse

You could’ve been me

You could’ve been me

It could’ve been worse

I could’ve been you

Are you blind just because you choose?

Your eyes are so grey

Tunnel vision, I only see you this way

But it won’t change

Taking sedatives, repetitive

Till the light of day

But to you, I’m your obstructed view
