Homebound - Grounded lyrics

I talk myself down to lighten this weight 'Cause I've got no strength to try and explain To try lighten this weight No strength left to try explain Still Introverted and self-contained I find my outlook changing but I'm just the same, a little smarter to the game I play my cards close to my chest and make amends for what you've done You'd run your mouth and make a mess that you would try and escape from We all have a point to prove but some with a little more to lose Everything has a price to pay, and this time I can't afford mistakes Keep my feet firm on the ground and wait I like to keep things to myself because my thoughts are my own Keep them trapped in my head and wait for this to blow Over and not out of proportion So forgive me for approaching with a sense of caution And I've learnt that happiness will make you weak You feel content, you feel complete But it was never enough to stop feeding my addiction With false hope filled with contradiction I lie awake in bed, some things are better left unsaid I like to keep things to myself because my thoughts are my own Keep them trapped in my head and wait for this to blow Over and not out of proportion So forgive me for approaching with a sense of caution I talk myself down to lighten this weight 'Cause I've got no strength to try and explain I talk myself down to lighten this weight 'Cause I've got no strength to try explain I like to keep things to myself because my thoughts are my own Keep them trapped in my head and wait for this to blow Over and not out of proportion So forgive me for approaching with a sense of caution
