[Verse 1: 8485]
Did you really think that you could never want anything at all?
Did you really think that if you never talk then it won't hurt so much?
Can you justify what separates yourself from everybody else?
'Cause everybody else needs somebody sometimes
You're starting to cry all the time again
It's such a sad state of affairs to watch you hide behind your hair
Speak and you barely get a sound out
Need somebody sometime
Did it make you tough to be terrified?
You turn around and no one's there
Surely, you say, 'causе no one cares
But you’re just scarеd of getting found out
[Chorus: 8485]
What are you, you hellbent to prove?
What do you, you plan to do?
If they come and get the question right
And they look you in the empty eye
If you're never getting left behind
Although you try your hardest
'Cause it's hard enough when you don't hide
But you're staring at the blinds closed tight
And you whisper that you miss the light
So can we just be honest?
[Bridge: 8485]
So can we just be honest?
Can we? Can we?
Can we just be honest?
[Verse 2: 8485]
Is it better to be living like you're dead?
Is that winning in your head?
When you wake up and you feel like nothing's left
There's way too much to lose
And I know you think about it and you guess
It doesn't make much sense
But I know you think about it nonetheless
Yeah I know you think about it nonetheless
And I know it doesn't make it go away
And I know that you're afraid to show your face
But you know it doesn't change until you change
So something has to change
And I didn't come to make you feel ashamed
And I didn't want to make you take the blame
But I am someone you can't lie to
[Chorus: 8485]
What are you, you hellbent to prove?
What do you, you plan to do?
What are you, you hellbent to prove?
What do you, you plan to do?
If they come and get the question right
And they look you in the empty eye
If you're never getting left behind
Although you try your hardest
'Cause it's hard enough when you don't hide
But you're staring at the blinds closed tight
And you whisper that you miss the light
So can we just be honest?
