I've been waiting all my life To get to a place where I feel fine And I don't struggle anymore I think I've finally reached it Another fact I won't admit You keep pushing me but I'll persevere until I finally break My heart left in the open Took in all that it could hold Sew me shut and leave me closed Long term damage but I'll manage I'll use these scars as my moral compass And just guide my way home Lately I've been doing great Despite the messes that I made They shaped me into a better man And I'm done pretending that I'm not getting better Done with crashing down from all of the enormous pressure I never really wanted to be me Nobody told me just how hard that this would be My heart left in the open Took in all that it could hold Sew me shut and leave me closed Long term damage but I'll manage I'll use these scars as my moral compass And just guide my way home
