Verse 1

You open me up and fly so high

But you close me when you say goodbye

I feel no use when you just sit there

After all, I just stare

Like maybe someday you'd actually care

Pre chorus

I'm never useful when I see you on the sidelines

And I'm the one that you left behind

I'm just your friend in front of your face

I feel like I'm nothing to you in every case

Chorus

I'm just the torn up parachute

I think the both of us need to take some time to reboot

And every moment we had together made me feel alive

But now all I feel is dead inside

Verse 2

I'm packed up, put on your shelf, as you process your day

And I'm not even a thought in your brain

I'm sure if it

And I finally know now

The ignorance is just bliss in your house

Pre chorus

I'm never useful when I see you on the sidelines

I'm the one that you decided to leave behind

Chorus

I'm just the torn up parachute

I think the both of us need to take some time to reboot

And every moment we had together made me feel alive

But now all I feel is dead inside

Bridge

You take off laughing with your best friend

Like I'm just your dead end

You had a wild ride

You forgot I helped you fly

Saved you from soaring down low

But I'm treated like an old boat

How much longer can I be

A flaming ball of fury

Outro (kind of chorus??)

I'm just the torn up parachute

Should've left me in the gutter just to stay mute

I have no more moments of breathing peace

Because I'm the one you decided to leave
