Water Balloon

I keep on putting tape over my own mouth
Anytime I try to let you into my brain it shuts down
I wanna tell the truth
But my doubts cling to my belt loop
Anxiety crashes over me like a water balloon
(Anxiety, anxiety)

[Flute Solo]

Practice to myself all the words I'd like to release
(But you know me, but you know me)
Recite them in my head, my heartbeat rises with the heat
(But you know me, but you know me)
I've got blisters on my feet from wearing shoes
That don't belong to me
But I'm scared to take them off
They're on so tight that my feet will bleed

It's fine for a while, but it seeps into your skin
The secrets that I hide, they're burning me alive
You're tearing me apart, the way you make me feel
You're tearing me apart, how good you make me feel
