I talk myself down to lighten this weight

'Cause I've got no strength to try and explain

To try lighten this weight

No strength left to try explain

Still Introverted and self-contained

I find my outlook changing but I'm just the same, a little smarter to the game

I play my cards close to my chest and make amends for what you've done

You'd run your mouth and make a mess that you would try and escape from

We all have a point to prove but some with a little more to lose

Everything has a price to pay, and this time I can't afford mistakes

Keep my feet firm on the ground and wait

I like to keep things to myself because my thoughts are my own

Keep them trapped in my head and wait for this to blow
Over and not out of proportion

So forgive me for approaching with a sense of caution

And I've learnt that happiness will make you weak

You feel content, you feel complete

But it was never enough to stop feeding my addiction

With false hope filled with contradiction

I lie awake in bed, some things are better left unsaid

I like to keep things to myself because my thoughts are my own

Keep them trapped in my head and wait for this to blow

Over and not out of proportion

So forgive me for approaching with a sense of caution

I talk myself down to lighten this weight

'Cause I've got no strength to try and explain
I talk myself down to lighten this weight

'Cause I've got no strength to try explain

I like to keep things to myself because my thoughts are my own

Keep them trapped in my head and wait for this to blow

Over and not out of proportion

So forgive me for approaching with a sense of caution
