When they take your kindness and keep it,
Say things, then don’t really mean it,
You think you see a weakness, so creep in —
Funny, it’s just how I’m used to being.
I do the same when I’m messed up,
Say too much when I should shut up.
The weight of the world can start to sink in,
fast way to freedom is give words no meaning.
They don’t know the storm you weather,
Every scar, you wear better n better
No chains, no weight, no storms to weather—
Let the echoes fade forever n ever
I do the same when I’m lost
Let the pain come out in a frost
But the past don’t define me believe if
You want a fast way to heal it
What you hear, it don’t mean a thing —
Little words, get ’em out of your brain.
Only you can give words pain they bring
So take a step away, inhale, breathe in. Let it go, dont give it any meaning
Their words don’t have to make you break.
You can stand up and walk away,
So take a step away, inhale, just breathe in.
No more shadows pulling you down and
No more echoes spinning around so much
stronger now, don’t need their sound —
Turn the volume off, d***n it all out
Make music and u can tune it all out.
Cause it’s your mind that controls you. Make no mistake words can hurt to but
Give words no meaning.
Breathe in… breathe in…
Give words no meaning.
