Peace Offering - Youth Fountain

It’s piling up, a constant hunger I’ve been yearning for so long

You’d start to think that I’d be used to this, with every problem I dwell on

I’m still suffering, is this what I need?

A new love for a false sense of peace

Justify the sad excuse, of a stranger I call «me»

A stranger I call «me»

And if you pull the heartstrings, while closed in with clipped wings

I couldn’t be enough for anyone when I hate myself

I’ll pretend that I’m okay like this

But you can tell by my tone of voice

It’s not up to choice for getting out of this bed I’m in

Staying dormant in dark places I fall right back in

I concealed the guilt, tearing down any love I built

Now I’m wearingthin

I’m letting go, as you’re slipping (feel it all cave in)

Will all this pain be useful someday?

Pessimism finds its way, to keep seeping through my veins

And if you pull the heartstrings, while closed in with clipped wings

I couldn’t be enough for anyone when I hate myself

The peace offering doesn’t mean anything

When all I see are these insecurities, making me my enemy

I’m all worn down

I can’t wait this out

My mental health is defeated now

And I heard the sound

In this broken house

The memory serves me well

Please, could you pick up the phone?

I’d say it all, I’d make it known

That I’m not what I seem

That you’re everything in between someone who’s leaving

And if you pull the heartstrings, while closed in with clipped wings

I couldn’t be enough for anyone when I hate myself

The peace offering doesn’t mean anything

When all I see are these insecurities, making me my enemy

And if you pull the heartstrings, while closed in with clipped wings

I couldn’t be enough for anyone when I hate myself

The peace offering doesn’t mean anything

When all I see are these insecurities, making me my enemy
