[Intro]
These first few months, I’ve felt I was born out of time
Like I’m spun 9/8 in a world swinging in 8/9
It doesn’t feel quite right
I wanna fall into the sky and feel the light
[Verse 1]
I feel like I was cut into the wrong shape
And then jammed into place
Like a toddler doing a puzzle
(Making pieces break)
But when I’m with you I feel like I am okay
Like I might be sane
Like we fit into each oth- (You know that didn’t come out how I wanted to but it’s like-)
[Chorus 1]
I would do anything to be
Who Silas sees in me
‘Cause I don’t want to be
A walking paradox who’s missing both knees
[Verse 2]
Why do I feel like this is falling apart
When I’ve worked so hard
To hold things together
Well maybe I’m just not
What you saw
Or what you want
And I’ll never be better
(I will die the same)
[Chorus 2]
But I want to see
What is out there
In the world beyond the air
So I can
Make a new mold
And feel okay again
[Bridge]
I used to long for nothing more than to be who you saw in me
Now all I wish is you saw who I thought you did
‘Cause in the end I see that I was pretty damn successful
The problem is that you saw nothing in me
And I wouldn’t really care if you had never said a thing
This only hurts because I really thought you loved me
But now it’s clear to see you never loved me
I was just your mortal limited nothing
So did everything you say to me mean nothing?
‘Cause if that’s the case then I really am nothing
[Verse 3]
‘Cause my worth is defined by what other people see in me
So when I die, I’ll die your limited nothing
‘Cause our worth is defined by what everyone else sees in us
So when we die, we’ll all die limited nothings
‘Cause everyone you know will die alone in the end
So when we die we’ll all die parallel nothings
But nothing really matters when you’re nothing
So it’s kind of easier to just be nothing
But I don’t want to die another nothing
So why’d you have to tell me that you loved me?
If reality is subjective, then nothing ever really was
So when we die (or when we live)
Or when we live (or all the time)
Or all the time (all the time, all the time)
We’re all just nothing
[Chorus 3]
I want to be
Somewhere out there
In the world beyond the air
So I can beat
Up the one who made me
Feel this pain
These first few months, I’ve felt I was born out of time
Like I’m spun 9/8 in a world swinging in 8/9
It doesn’t feel quite right
I wanna fall into the sky and feel the light

I feel like I was cut into the wrong shape
And then jammed into place
