I was thinking I'm the tar pit
The broken house where we collect
Do you find it easier to live inside yourself
Without mirrors to reflect?
You're at a table all alone
And I know, I know, I know
There are things you say that you don't mean
But can you please just treat me like I'm here
I shouldn't be scared to speak
But you know you won't let anything go
Would you listen to yourself
Just listen to yourself
Someone please tell me how to do this
I'll stop trying to stop you throwing ornaments at me
Can't you see I'm so scared to speak
I only talk when you're asleep
But you won't look over your blockades to see
Someone else struggling is not your enemy
But I'm trying to remind you
With every single cell of me I'm going to make you see this
If I could be enough for you to treat me as your equal
