Plastic

I got the life I used to chase
But something’s off, I feel outta place
The crowd gets loud, they call my name
But deep inside, it’s not the same

Their love burns hot, I see the flame
Still I shrink back, I feel the shame
It’s weird, I should be feelin’ lit
But I fold too easy like plastic

Stay
I float in delay
Gray
My smile fades away
Stay
This rush makes me sway
Daze, I'm stuck in this neon haze

Wait
This night feels too loud
Stray
I move through the crowd
Fade
Eyes locked in, I'm gone
Haze, I’ve been here but feel withdrawn

Chasin’ it too far
I thought I’d hold it and feel fine
But it bent me in ways I can’t define

Ran outta breath
Still look intact when all eyes shine
But I feel something start pulling too tight
Smiles start to crack

Moments too loud, and space too tight to breathe
I'm stretching thin, I blur
I feel plastic
Do I look okay
Heat gets drastic
Will I fade away

My chest feels too tight
Glow
My face burns too bright
Noise
Your words blur and bend
Mirror, he now wears a different end

Rush
My hands start to shake
Blank
My head starts to break
Breathe
Let’s slow this down now
Calm
Find my way through this somehow

Chasin’ it too far
I thought I’d hold it and feel fine
But it bent me in ways I can’t define

Ran outta breath
Still look intact when all eyes shine
But I feel something start pulling too tight
Smiles start to crack

Moments too loud, and space too tight to breathe
I'm stretching thin, I blur
I feel plastic
Do I look okay
Heat gets drastic
Will I fade away
