You're so good at being noticed
When there's no one around
Skeletons hangin' in your closet
But they won't make a sound

Bathed in self-preservation
Like you're runnin' on fumes
Your back has all of my attention
I'm here for you


Open, open, let them hit the floor
Hard to make a little room for more


You cross your fingers when you lie
You still can't look me in the eyes though
Hiding trouble with a smile
I know you better than your shadow

You keep telling mе you're fine
Why we gotta do this еvery time?
You cross your fingers when you lie
I know you better than your shadow



They're not puttin' on a show now
While you're cuttin' your hair
Years from now, there'll be a fallout
Hold me back if I care

Tough love never had a balance
Soft enough so you stay
I'm a long-lost messenger for parents
That want to change


Would a little sadden every bone?
So maybe one day you can say you don't


You cross your fingers when you lie
You still can't look me in the eyes though
Hiding trouble with a smile
I know you better than your shadow

You keep telling me you're fine
Why we gotta do this every time?
You cross your fingers when you lie
I know you better than your shadow



Tell me what you tell yourself
What you tell nobody else
Tell me what you tell yourself
