Atelophobia by Empty Handed Lyrics
I am tired of myself questioning everything
I never tried to escape even though I had a thousand plans about it: to release myself, to disconnect from everything around me
I wrote it on the walls, I had my face down, but I was wide-awake while you kept slitting my throat
My mind plays tricks on me and time never healed a single let- down
Why do I feel enamoured of people that I should rather forget? Now I can’t tell you what is real ‘cause everything’s just a fragment of your expectations
No more
No more expectations
‘You’re not good enough’ is what they keep telling me
And to think, I had wishes
I thought I could fulfil your dreams
I thought I could be someone to you
The truth is, I never loved you but I’m still in love with the things I thought we might have been
Keep your eyes shut and take a look at me
Our thoughts will sing to the sound of letting go
I hope you’re lonely like me. Set me free
