deer in headlights - bruises

I used to fall and cry
Flinching at someone just was holding up their arm
I soon realized
We're just bags of blood
And were set to burst
So i always feared the worst
Even if it wasnt serious
You could bet on my tears
To make giant storms
In small paper cups
The one thing i could count on
Was my father telling me
Stop being a sissy son"

You bleed yourself out
Something to write a sad song about
You used to fall cry
But you dont even get bruises anymore

Now im careful with my steps
I barely even fall
Now i just create walls
Timid full of self defense
Paired with a demeanor
And a resting bitch face
Now im close to adulthood
But in reality
I'm a lonely touch starved child
Trying to pretend they're not

You bleed yourself out
Something to write a sad song about
You used to fall cry
But you dont even get bruises anymore

Now i explore fake sorrows
I'm to careful to even experience
In the form of long for msongs
Emotionally fraudulent works of art
These walls are umbrelas for my feelings
But if i walk alone in the rain
The sky will do the crying for me
In reciprocity
