takoyaki donuts & potetopancakes - tilt the scales lyrics
they have called me many things
but i don’t see the point
i will never be a king
so i’ll just keep inside
can’t they see i’m struggling
to find what brings me joy?
my creative spark is fading
as i sit there weary+eyed
honey, it’s funny
a wasted human body
so stupid, hey cupid
oh, why’d you make me ugly?
muddy, unlucky
a dumb, degraded copy
not sk!llful, or willful
oh, why’d anyone want me?
hiding all my feelings deep down inside
push away the words that rendered me tongue+tied
worked so hard, do i look back?
listening as i begin to unpack
thinking that i should’ve stopped long ago
possibly prevented my mistakes, but who knows?
never gonna think of what my future entails
until we can find a way to tip the scales
it’s all so unbalanced, i’m wasting my talents
or were we all meant to do nothing at all?
my thoughts, my inaction, this golden contraption
i’m weighing my options, to tilt the scales
picking up the pieces of the mirrors that i’ve shattered
‘cause we know that self+improvement’s not served on a silver platter
surrounded by the many me’s, that i pretend to be
pointing, laughing, as i’m crying, “how do i want to be seen?”
enduring, maturing
i want something reassuring
can’t shake it, retake it
i never could escape it
wishing, believing
that i could become something
i’ll fake it, please make it
but can i even take it?
take my hand, we’ll put the pieces back in place
just don’t cut your fingers on the glass
false reflections of who we don’t wanna be
maybe we’ll find ourselves in the cracks
placing all those feelings between each gap
screaming the words that made me an insomniac
staring hard into our own eyes
holding back from telling myself those lies
squinting through the glare that tries to blind me
everything i can’t see just leaves me wanting
i’m not giving up before i’ve had a chance to fail
take those heavy apprehensions off to tip the scales
i’ll change up this balance, keep growing my talents
so we’ll keep on blossoming no matter how small
my thoughts, i’ll take action, this golden contraption
i’ll place my emotions to tilt the scales
oh, so i’ll keep on moving forward as life goes on
throw everything you’ve got, ‘cause now i’m passing the baton
no trying to hide when something simple goes wrong
know you need to keep running in this endless relay race, our marathon
restoring the balance, grow into our talents
we’ll fight for our purpose and give it our all
this golden contraption, there’s no more distractions
to find satisfaction, we tilt the scales
