Lyrics Between You & Me – Cut Me Some Slack

I dig deep to find these holes in my skin
I’ve been covering up
A fake facade that’s paper-thin
I fixate the eyes of everyone around me

I fucked up, now I’m stuck
In a headspace buried under
Two tonnes of insecurities
Now everyone can see

Patience and confidence is something that I lack
With every step I take as crooked as my back
I regret the things that I say
I can’t help that I’m that way
Just know I’m trying my best
So won’t you cut me some slack?

I feel the pressure
As it slowly makes its way
Through the cracks in my skin
I’m used to this
But six feet down I’m over it
I’ve dug this hole again for myself in my own head

I fucked up up, now I’m stuck
In a headspace buried under
Two tonnes of insecurities
Now everyone can see

Patience and confidence is something that I lack
With every step I take as crooked as my back
I regret the things that I say
I can’t help that I’m that way

I am so sick of waiting
For you to call me up and help me get out of my head
I’m sick of all of this ’cause
These days I still pretend that I don’t sleep alone in my bed

But I’m still, buried under
Six feet down I wonder
If I’ll ever be the same again, ’cause

Patience and confidence is something that I lack
With every step I take as crooked as my back
I regret the things that I say
I can’t help that I’m that way
Just know I’m trying my best
So won’t you cut me some slack?
