Plague

Trepidation Creepin' up on me Her validation Comes so easily And I can't stand it Never felt so much unease Suffocating Reading all her praise Infuriating When they speak her name And I can't help it Need a cure for this disease This Plague That sweeps the land This Plague Of comparison And maybe someday We'll all join hand in hand But today This Plague is in command of me Fervently proving My superiority But only showing My insecurity Never knowing She's worth just as much as me Slowly sinking Into the sunken place Always thinking That I'll be replaced And now I'm seeing Something sinful's got a spell on me And I know there's no need to fear her 'Cause my rival is the girl in the mirror But this vindictive part of me Is addicted to misery It's a Plague That sweeps the land This Plague Of comparison And maybe someday We'll all join hand in hand But today This Plague is in command of me And deep down I wish her peace Yeah deep down I want her joyful and happy Oh deep down Don't want her to feel my grief Yes deep down I'm glad for her Oh deep down I wish her the life she deserves But deep down I don't even know my worth And I try to extricate myself by standing on her But in the end, I only feel worse Satisfaction It seems eons away I guess it's just another symptom Of this Plague That sweeps the land This Plague Of comparison And maybe someday We'll all join hand in hand But today This Plague is in command It's a Plague That sweeps the land This Plague Of comparison And maybe someday We'll all join hand in hand But today This Plague is in command of me
