Our Hearts

I've been following the wrong path
Being guided by those who were lost
Did they want to guide me into a dead end
Those you hold above you will hold you down

I took the wrong advice and held you close
I was told to run but decided to make our bed
I laid in it and felt a crushing weight on my chest
Your heart isn't light, it's leading me astray

I took my own life with your rope
As you smiled and nodded to agree
Tell me you love me as you go behind my back
Do I bite the hand that feeds or close my mouth

I started doing me, started plotting my own map
You're so wrong for burning every bridge
But I've spent my life repairing every bridge and rope
My hands are calloused and too tired to fight

We talked about who I should be
"Be who you are not who I want"
I've changed so many times for you
Who I was isn't who I am now
