The Only Constant

by Grandview

on Everything Between Paint and a Wall (2013)

We're stagnant, we're just creatures of habit
I dig my nails into what I know
And cover my whole life in scratches

And you swore that you'd stay grounded
But you're getting taken by the wind
You said, "you know when I'm alone, I can feel the cracks in my skin"
So keep your grip around my fingers

I was built to break (to break)
I was made to feel afraid for the sake of feeling something
(Feeling anything)
I'll bleed my heart out and paint the walls
I'll be a portrait of what's been lost for the sake of being something
(Being anything)

And now I'll stumble through each scene
Watch everything around me learn to change
While the constant stays the same, I stay the same

Now my legs are giving out
And these walls are caving in
I could spend a lifetime by your side
But I just can't piece them back again

I was built to break (to break)
I was made to feel afraid for the sake of feeling something
(Feeling anything)
I'll bleed my heart out and paint the walls
I'll be a portrait of what's been lost for the sake of being something
(Being anything)

I'm falling apart at the seams
I'm a toy that got tucked away
Now forget about me
I'm falling apart at the seams
Just an torn up rag-doll
There's nothing left inside of me

Now my legs are giving out
And these walls are caving in
I could spend a lifetime by your side
But I just can't piece them back again

'Cause I was built to break (to break)
I was made to feel afraid for the sake of feeling something
I don't feel anything anymore
