Cosmetic Cuts

[00:00.25] Where does my patience fly?
[00:02.74] I'm quick to testify
[00:04.62] I'm quick to pull the plug
[00:07.23] When things start getting rough
[00:09.46] Where do the teachers hide?
[00:11.65] The ones we really need
[00:14.15] The ones we're asking for
[00:16.40] The ones we cannot see
[00:20.26] 'Cause I'll choose you, then I'll choose me
[00:24.60] Then I'll be torn and split between the thick of red
[00:31.99] The thin of grey
[00:34.47] I'll always be second place
[00:39.68] My insecurities aren't few and far between
[00:44.57] I'll take care of you, but the price is me
[00:49.02] And then I'll paint my heart, and I'll serve it up
[00:53.82] Serve it to myself with its cosmetic cuts
[00:59.77] 'Cause I'll choose you, then I'll choose me
[01:04.56] Then I'll be torn and split between the thick of red
[01:11.54] The thin of grey
[01:14.06] I'll always be second place
[01:20.80]
[01:37.91] And the few seconds here where the stars align
[01:42.96] We don't force a smile or pretend it's fine
[01:47.68] And we live for this and maybe we'll learn
[01:52.46] How to balance life in-between the hurt
[01:58.25] 'Cause I'll choose you, then I'll choose me
[02:02.63] Then I'll be torn and split between the thick of red
[02:09.94] The thin of grey
[02:12.11] I'll always be second place
[02:16.78] 'Cause I'll choose you, then I'll choose me
[02:21.45] Then I'll be torn and split between the thick of red
[02:28.79] The thin of grey
[02:31.03] I'll always be second place
[02:35.56]
