"Life Sentence" lyrics

"Life Sentence"

You're the cell, you're the cage
You're my fight or flight
You're the hole in my head
Where a child died
You're the touch that makes trust
Feel like suicide
You're the ball, you're the chain
You're my sentence for life

I'd tell the story but no one believes me
You keep denying it so no one sees me
You always lie just to keep control
Because the truths uncomfortable

You're the memory that's filling my prescriptions
You're the shame that always shuts me up
I need to numb and you're the cause of the addiction
You're the scar that taught me not to love

You're the cell, you're the cage
You're my fight or flight
You're the hole in my head
Where a child died
You're the touch that makes trust
Feel like suicide
You're the ball, you're the chain
You're my sentence for life

You're my, you're my, you're my
Sentence for life
You're my, you're my, you're my
Sentence for life

I would expose you but you always play the victim
You'd rather hide than pay the price for your decisions
So I will live with the consequence
Until they bury the evidence

You're the insomnia at 4AM when I can't breathe
You're every trigger that I talk about in therapy
You're in my brain, you're the imbalance in my chemistry
Taught me I'm never safe, not even with my family
(So if I die, know I was murdered by my pedigree)

You're the cell, you're the cage
You're my fight or flight
You're the hole in my head
Where a child died
You're the touch that makes trust
Feel like suicide
You're the ball, you're the chain
You're my sentence for life

You're my, you're my, you're my
Sentence for life
You're my, you're my, you're my
Sentence for life

I'd tell the story but no one believes me
You keep denying it so no one will see me
You've always lied just to keep control
Because the truth's uncomfortable

You're the cell, you're the cage
You're my fight or flight (flight)
You're the hole in my head
Where a child died (died)
You're the touch that makes trust
Feel like suicide
You're the ball, you're the chain
You're my sentence for life

You're my sentence for life
