[Verse 1]
These words are punching holes
Through my teeth
Breaking my jaw
And making my gums bleed
I never had the right things to say
But it never mattered anyway
[Verse 2]
Because it's fate
That I changed and you left
You set your sights to grow
In the south Midwest
I'll over step my boundary
And finally outgrow all my fears
[Bridge]
And I have learned to keep my distance
[Verse 3]
Indiana changed everything
But things are better now
I've lost my sense of disdain
And you always said
That I'll be in your head
Feel real in my own skin
I finally feel content
With who I've become
And all the things you've done
I'm just another pawn
In all of the things you love
I can't say that I feel blue
Just like your hair
How could you call me out
And say I never cared?
It's a test of patience
In learning how to face this
[Chorus]
I know I'm selfish
At least I'm honest
