Kylee Brielle - Shards Lyrics

Losing the pieces of me
I give away with every please
Bow to what you think I need
Despite how much I'm breaking
And I don't think I can
Be someone I can stand
Giving in to your demands
For your promised land
I won't turn my eyes from the glaring truth
I'm not living blind to thoughtless abuse
Don't think I've caught on
But I'm proving you wrong
And what you kept hidden I finally see
Right through this prison you built for me
Is this what you wanted?
To keep me on guard and
I don't remember how to trust
Effortlessly, like I used to
I'm tired of giving myself up
Don't know who I am, but I won't be you
Losing the pieces of me
I hear the fragments crack beneath
These desperate demanding feet
It's not so simple I don't think
I can ever be whole again
But maybe with the shards
Build a life worth living in
A haven
Never had to go on my own
But I've gotta suffer to become strong
I'll fight through these fears
And make up for wasted years
You said you're righteous
That I'd be free
But that was the lie just
To capture me
Is this what you wanted?
I'm forever haunted
I don't remember how to trust
Effortlessly, like I used to
I'm tired of giving myself up
Don't know who I am, but I won't be you
And I don't remember how to trust
(Losing the pieces of me
I give away with every please)
I'm tired of giving myself up
(Hear the fragments crack beneath
These desperate, demanding feet)
And I don't remember how to trust
(And I don't think I can
Be someone I can stand)
I'm tired of giving myself up
Don't know who I am, but I won't be you

Losing the pieces of me
I give away with every please
Bow to what you think I need
Despite how much I'm breaking
And I don't think I can
Be someone I can stand
Giving in to your demands
For your promised land
I won't turn my eyes from the glaring truth
I'm not living blind to thoughtless abuse
Don't think I've caught on
But I'm proving you wrong
And what you kept hidden I finally see
Right through this prison you built for me
Is this what you wanted?
To keep me on guard and
I don't remember how to trust
Effortlessly, like I used to
I'm tired of giving myself up
Don't know who I am, but I won't be you
Losing the pieces of me
I hear the fragments crack beneath
These desperate demanding feet
It's not so simple I don't think
I can ever be whole again
But maybe with the shards
Build a life worth living in
A haven
Never had to go on my own
But I've gotta suffer to become strong
I'll fight through these fears
And make up for wasted years
You said you're righteous
That I'd be free
But that was the lie just
To capture me
Is this what you wanted?
I'm forever haunted
I don't remember how to trust
Effortlessly, like I used to
I'm tired of giving myself up
Don't know who I am, but I won't be you
And I don't remember how to trust
(Losing the pieces of me
I give away with every please)
I'm tired of giving myself up
(Hear the fragments crack beneath
These desperate, demanding feet)
And I don't remember how to trust
(And I don't think I can
Be someone I can stand)
I'm tired of giving myself up
Don't know who I am, but I won't be you
