Breathing won't come easy

One day
You said breathing would come easy
One day
You said i'd reconcile
Ingrained pressures maintain shallow comfort
You said one day
I'd reconcile

Call it will
But I can't seem to
Formulate these words I'm told
Will help me to escape
This state
It sways the way I overcompensate
For fear of getting overwhelmed
I'm getting overwhelmed
Smaller now
So I can't reach the expectations
Placed on me
This brace will sway
And break in time
This common scene
That mocks my inability
To follow through

Breathing won't come easy
One day you said
Breathing would come easy
One day you said
I'd reconcile
Ingrained pressures maintain shallow comfort
You said one day
I'd reconcile

Transfer
These troubles outward
They're stood their ground
Now I should stand mine
So I explore
Measures to restore
Impressions that I
Want to leave now
So I transfer
These troubles outward
They're stood their ground
Now I should stand mine
This I know

Breathing won't come easy
one day you said
Breathing would come easy
One day you said
I'd reconcile
Ingrained pressures maintain shallow comfort
You said one day
I'd reconcile

So hard to unwind
What's locked inside
Too long to reconcile
What's locked inside
