leap over sidewalks
skipping stones to ripple this still reservoir
i've been mislead
i've hindered someone who struggles to throw that far
a chance they could fall in
drown to never be found
their only fear
we're going to take this one
sorry, didn't see you lying there
kicking and screaming
just trying to keep my balance
i'm sure you wanted that apology
but i've been weaving, stepping
over your limbs
i've always been that polite
lend a hand but you resent to meet halfway
and we're always stepping on someone's toes
just in case you didn't notice
i think you failed to even notice
hold me down
i'll kick before i break
you're a preschooler holding a megaphone
timid, are we inferior?
bite your tongue
many walls you whisper to
the echoes made their way through
these caved in halls were built by you
only you
and we're always stepping on someone's toes
just in case you didn't notice
i think you failed to even notice
hold me down
i kick before i break
hold me down
i bend before i break
complexion breaks
it never changes now
