Tripping on some kind of twisted wordplay
I'm fading (I'm fading) and I can't see straight
So I avoid the cycle like the plague
But it's catching up to me
There's nothing left to take
But you're catching up to me
You're catching up to me
I'm swimming with the stream and I can't escape it
Put salt in my wounds, see if I can take it
And you won't listen
Cause I will say what you're afraid of
Cause I will say it
Bruises and stings, but there were never bloodstains
Nothing that I could try to validate
In this game, bringing back my growing pains
They're catching up to me
(You're catching up to me)
You're catching up to me
(Say it)
Don't say it aloud, don't say it aloud
Don't say it aloud, it'll make it real
Don't say it aloud, don't say it aloud
Don't say it aloud and take away the thrill
Don't say it aloud, don't say it aloud
Don't say it aloud, it'll make it real
Don't say it aloud, don't say it aloud
Don't say it aloud
I'm swimming with the stream and I can't escape it
Put salt in my wounds, see if I can take it
And you won't listen
Cause I will say what you're afraid of
Cause I will say it
(Say it)
Don't say it aloud, don't say it aloud
Don't say it aloud, it'll make it real
Don't say it aloud, don't say it aloud
Don't say it aloud and take away the thrill
Don't say it aloud, don't say it aloud
Don't say it aloud, it'll make it real
Don't say it aloud, don't say it aloud
Don't say it aloud
Cause I will say what you're afraid of
Cause I will say it
Cause I will say what you're afraid of
Cause I will say it
Cause I will say what you're afraid of
Cause I will say it
Cause I will say what you're afraid of
Cause I will say it
Cause I will say what you're afraid of
Cause I'm the one to say it
