The Opposite

The beating sun, so hot you cannot breathe
The stinging sweat pours into your eyes
Before you started you were through

The opposite of everything you need for fun
Is what you start to focus on

The closing mind, so stuck you cannot move
The fear of failing brews inside
The moment starts controlling you, yea

The opposite of everything you need for fun
Is what you start to focus on

Useless, all of this

You’re misaligned, it’s getting old, repetition
Crying, confined, stuck, no choice, obligations, lies
Always the same, overwhelmed, unimpressed, denied

The opposite of everything you need for fun
Is what you start to focus on

Selfish, all of this

Beauty is only skin deep, beauty is only skin deep
I knew it was proof, I knew it was you all along
But I would have to let it all go, never understanding why

Wrapped in bandages protecting myself from the outside
Never understanding why (I was)
Wrapped in bandages protecting myself from the outside
I left it all behind, each scar heals in time
Beauty is only skin deep
