"Dim" lyrics

"Dim"

I'm sick of living in my head
Afraid I'm never getting better
Wish I was someone else instead
Don't wanna feel this way forever
Hearing whispers of what you said
It's something I'll always remember
Wish I could let it go instead
But I'm crushed beneath the pressure

You crossed the line
Ignoring all the warning signs
You tried to dim my light
Just so you could let yours shine
I let you burn me again
You weren't a friend
We're never making amends
I'm out for revenge
I severed all the ties
I broke away and left behind your tether

I don't deserve the words you say
They're only ever condescending
But I won't let you shift the blame
All your excuses are unending
Took everything and ran away
Don't know what else I was expecting
It isn't worth the price we pay
I think it's time we stop pretending

You crossed the line
Ignoring all the warning signs
You tried to dim my light
Just so you could let yours shine
I let you burn me again
You weren't a friend
We're never making amends
I'm out for revenge
I severed all the ties
I broke away and left behind your tether

I think it's time we stopped pretending
So sure you're always right
Your words were never worth defending
We couldn't compromise
We both knew where this was heading
Now all that's left is spite
Every story needs an ending
I'm taking back my light

You crossed the line
Ignoring all the warning signs
You tried to dim my light
Just so you could let yours shine
I let you burn me again
You weren't a friend
We're never making amends
I'm out for revenge
I severed all the ties
I broke away and left behind your tether
