Lately my memories are more enticing than reality
And these daydreams suck away my energy.
Strip away my elegance.
Find a way to breathe again.
Break me down until you see the withered pieces underneath.
I try to see the good in life.
I try - despite my clouded mind.
I try to find the worth in me.
I try - but all I see is wasted time.
What more could you ask of me?
Oh, let me paint the scene:
Where every move I make breaks someone's heart.
Oh, I'm stuck inside my ways.
All these memories hold me down until I fall apart.
Staring down another fork in the road.
Do I stay complacent or choose to grow?
I've run for so long to hide the pain.
My time is up, I have to change!
What more could you ask of me?
Oh, let me paint the scene:
Where every move I make breaks someone's heart.
Oh, I'm stuck inside my ways.
All these memories hold me down until I fall apart.
Self disdain, broken hearts, truth forever kept in dark.
The sun will rise, the sun will set - while we live inside our heads.
There's so much that I've left unsaid.
It rips me up from within.
Now I guess I'll let you know - expose the weakness of my soul.
I'm in love with what holds me down.
Based on everything that I believe you'd think that nothing ever breaks me.
But you'll see that all the time consumed by vultures just like you has pushed me to the edge.
