[Verse 1]
Heart's too used to bein' lonely
Stuck in muscle memory
No one really knows me
Is my independence
Comin' back to bite me?
Do you really like me
Or are we pretending?
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm a performer
That's what I know how to do
But is it stopping
Me gettin' close to you?
[Chorus]
I'm a performer
Got myself cornered
Put on my armor
Just like my mother and father
Multiple versions
Of the same person
All of them hurtin'
Don't think the pеrformance is workin'
[Verse 2]
Every time I try to
Bе more vulnerable
It's like I hit a wall
Can't go any further
I don't wish this on anyone
It's gone on way too long
Patterns unbreakable
[Chorus]
I'm a performer
Got myself cornered
Put on my armor
Just like my mother and father (Just like my, yeah)
Multiple versions (Ah)
Of the same person
All of them hurtin'
Don't think the performance is workin'
[Bridge]
Mm, ah
Ah, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
I'm a performer
Got myself cornered
Put on my armor
Just like my mother and father
Multiple versions
Of the same person
All of them hurtin'
Don't think the performance is workin'
I'm a performer
Got myself cornered (Got myself, yeah)
Put on my armor (Put on my, ah)
Just like my mother and father
Multiple versions
Of the same person
All of them hurtin'
Don't think the performance is workin'
