Dark Patterns

Grounded then I feel spacey
Not the right kind of crazy
Surpass, my mind
Control, what are you chasing?
I don’t seem to be aching
You’re green, covered in envy
Surpass, my mind
Control, what are you chasing?

Seems like long ago
I got you as a pattern on my mind
And it took a while
For me to realize you were never right
Feeling like you ran out of lies
I don’t even know how I let you act
Everywhere I go you’d drag me down
I am self-aware, and now you can’t confine me

I don’t want you to own my emotions
I don’t want you to follow me
I am finally getting some closure
I don’t want you to stay on
And I want you to fade again

And I want you to fade away
I don’t want you to ruin my feelings
You’re the clouds that cover my sky
Stay away, go and find other meaning
I don’t want you to stay on
And I want you to fade again
And I want you to fade away

You were nothing but a shadow
You were nothing but a silhouette
Got not fear for you, not respect for you
There is nothing for you to take
You were nothing but a virus
That just wanted to inhabit me
Got vaccines for you, I’m immune to you
Got no time for you bitch

Seems like long ago
I got you as a pattern on my mind
And it took a while
For me to realize you were never right
Feeling like you ran out of lies
I don’t even know how I let you act
Everywhere I go you’d drag me down
I am self-aware, and now you can’t confine me

I don’t want you to own my emotions
I don’t want you to follow me
I am finally getting some closure
I don’t want you to stay on
And I want you to fade again

And I want you to fade away
I don’t want you to ruin my feelings
You’re the clouds that cover my sky
Stay away, go and find other meaning
I don’t want you to stay on
And I want you to fade again
And I want you to fade away

Let the sunshine in, let it burn
Back to your cage, yeah you’ll be locked

Hey, it’s me, Matisse!
