Jackintheway - Ribbons (Me & You) Lyrics

I really felt cut to ribbons
I guess I hate criticism
But I'm art, you're in my museum
If you're smart
If you're smart
If you're smart

You will shut your mouth and listen
While I give you who I am
You will fasten your attention
While I'm jamming in the trance

It's a major problem if I can be bothered
I should leave opinions all alone to squash em

But it's f*cked up when I think about you
Now I need a dump truck for the pile of unused
Pieces of the soul still waiting for the daylight
But I'm going back there cause I can make it right

I don't know if you need me
But I'll be around here I won't be leaving
I will be the sound board for your potential
You can always come back home if you're freezing

Do you want it that bad?
You can tell me first if you need to relapse
You don't gotta show anyone that you're sad
You can find a deeper love
A deeper way to get there

They don't need it that bad
You can take your time
While you find your way back
You don't gotta show anyone that you're sad
You can find a deeper love
A deeper way to get there

You thought you need to be special
You thought you needed more
You just need open to find your
Deeper love, a deeper way to get there

You thought you need to be special
You thought you needed more
You just need open to find your
Deeper love, a deeper way to get there

Your Voice was leading me back
Your Voice was leading me back
Your Voice was leading me back

I was tracking down the reasons I complained
Questions I should probably ask in grace
Felt career in music ran its course
Let it go, my artist self rejoiced

Spoke in coaching bout a different way
Making things to make 'em, just to play
Making things because that's how I'm made
Now I share to move it through the phase

Pack told me that I really gave enough
That I'd made enough art for the world to touch
That I'd said what I said and I made the dents
So I took a deep breath and away I went

I still believe the internet ain't for me
As artist I'm better off the phone in peace
But every cycle has a moment when I come to teach
Every house has a window
You can come and peek

And that's the truth
It took a while to learn
I'm on the spiral earning ever time it turns
With attachment burning while I fast and binge
Hope I finally give that to the past again

If I seek for purpose then addiction spins
Filling my mind with lies that I need the trend
Filling my time escaping what's mine to live
I wonder why I forget it's all shits & giggs

Used to get pissed to win
Used to pinch myself to get in touch with the pain
While recording lyrics and
Sourced it from shame and avoidant messages
Would force it to fit the distorted images

Stopped the abuse when I saw how it pushed me
Dying by my own hand lost in the snow
Out cold wonder how I separated from the pack
Never noticing your Voice that was leading me back

Your Voice was leading me back
Your Voice was leading me back
Your Voice was leading me back

Your Voice was leading me back
Your Voice was leading me back
Your Voice was leading me back

Deeper love
You can find a deeper love

Deeper love
You can find a deeper love
