How Do You Show Your Weakness

11 Aug 2024

You showed your weakness and gave yourself away
When you walked into the room like you are not afraid
You’ve never been known for meekness or thought to suffer doubts
The way you’re talking now it’s like you’re acting it out

Let me invite you in, come on and take everything
I want nothing for myself
Let me speak honestly, I depend on what I cannot see
Can you do the same yourself

You showed your weakness and gave yourself away
With all these sounds that vanish in the air
You’ve confused the things you want and the things that you can’t quit
You want to be the victim and you want the biggest stick

You showed your weakness and gave yourself away
Demanding attention and requiring care
Never too old for cheapness, scratching that itch
You made a contest of fears, then gave the winner rich

You showed your weakness and gave yourself away
You’ve signed over things that can never be repaid
Everything is impeachable and nothing you do makes sense
You offer only insults and take only offense
