You've lost the light that I thought I had found
Given up on flight
Given up on and settled to remain here on the ground
Force comfort and rest
Force comfort and rest, adjust to unpleasantness
♪
You gave up on what you had
You gave up on what you had
You know that your greatest compromise weighs heavy in your eyes
I can see that it's something you cannot hide
You fenced yourself in with these white posts
Given up on what you needed most
He clipped your wings, you no longer sing
You allowed the worm to make you its host
A cage is a cage, even when there are no bars
And if you keep your head down, then there's no way you'll see the stars

You've let him become the weights that keep you tethered to the floor

A house can't make you whole (make you whole)
And the bottle won't return what he stole
Sleeves to cover wrists, bruised from heavy fists
You can't say you're complete when what you're missing still exists

There's hardly a shadow of who you once were
What have you become?
Lost and alone
♪
But you live for the crash
You ache for the flames, the pity it brings
What have you become?
