Sweat

Alter-ego making excuses Nobody knows what the truth is Is that why you get defensive It abuses all of your senses Getting hung up but you don't know where the noose is Can't make sense of any of the music There's a fire under your feet But you're missing every beat Why you trying so hard Drive away fast in your car Why you trying so hard Why you push me away Why don't you say what you need to say Instead of running away Give yourself a rest, off your chest I wanna see you sweat Alter-ego gets you dancing When things get bad, and you don't understand it Is that why you're getting toxic You put up your walls and you block it Getting all sad cause you're loving so hard But it never leaves the back of your car This anguish and this heat Fuels the rhythm in your feet And then the alter-ego is back in power You're wearing black boots instead of pretty flowers This is why you put up your front You're afraid of what you really want Now you're getting in bed with so many strangers Paying no mind to your feelings, or the dangers Coagulation is what you need But you're letting yourself bleed What would your mama think If she saw you crying in the sink After a few drinks And what would your daddy say If he knew you were lying everyday And pushing everyone away Give your heart a rest, try your best I wanna see you sweat Why you trying so hard Now that you can't feel your arms Why you trying so hard What are you gonna do When there's no one left but you What are you gonna do Give the night a rest, try your best And let me see you sweat
