LYRICS

Ultimatum

It's hard to explain how I feel now
My chest is a little bit tight
The more you don't say, the harder it is to breathe

It seems we've come full circle
A sense of déjà vu
I don't like the way this feels at all

An ultimatum unintentionally disguised

I find it hard to fathom and harder to imagine
How all can lead to nothing in an instant

Do you realize your defenses?
To be in the natural
To be in a safe place, to take refuge where the harm is minimal

I thought I was stronger than this
I thought I was stronger than this

My words replaced with silent emotion
My cares are now insensible
The more I think, the harder it is to breathe

I hate to disappoint you
And I don't want to run away
But there is one thing and only one that has never betrayed me

I thought I was stronger than this
I thought I was stronger than this
I thought I was stronger than this
I thought I was stronger than this
