"Look Away" lyrics

"Look Away"

Do you think I'd let you watch me fall?
Ever watch me fall

How many times will it be fine?
When will it be enough?
Words like a double-edged blade but harmless compared to those eyes, that
Radiate with pity
No need to say it out loud

I've already read your mind
The tempest will rip through this lands and the flood will wash away this vanity

All this blame but why should I feel ashamed?
I know how you operate
I'm always going to be the one that you love to hate

You've always looked away, away from this, away from me
Either way I'll find a way to exist
Not even a lifetime can prepare you
And you will never understand
I'll be counting the days 'til you are silent
I'll be counting the days 'til you are silent
I am counting the days until you will be silent

All this blame but why should I feel ashamed?
I know how you operate
I'm always going to be the one that you love to hate

You've always looked away, away from this, away from me
Either way I'll find a way to exist
Look at this, look at me
Through your doubt I found a way to exist

Beauty lies in the eye of the beholder
The damage is already done
Beauty lies in the eye of the beholder

Do you think I'd let you watch me fall?
Ever watch me fall

I'd rather have my body be numb from this constant fight than being safe from behind a glass wall
With bloody knuckles I will not let you oppress me
How can you be so dumb to think that you'll watch me fall
