I'm on my own writing words that no one will get,
I got tired of the phone and your voice in my head.
I tried on and on, but I walk alone.
All of the knives that you've thrown,
The wounds that I've bled and the ice in your bones
Made my knuckles dye red.
I tried screaming, but you were not listening.
In my defense, I must say
This is not what I signed up for.
Back in the day when you thought it was me you could change to fit the mold,
And tell all your friends you had made it,
Finally fixed what you hated.
I'm on my own writing words that no one will get,
I got tired of the phone and your voice in my head.
I tried on and on, but I walk alone.
All of the knives that you've thrown,
The wounds that I've bled and the ice in your bones
Made my knuckles dye red.
I tried screaming, but you were not listening.
Take it from me,
He who ruins his life and his fate
Giving up his beliefs which once he embraced,
And looks for himself in someone else's place,
Never knew self-respect.
I'm on my own writing words that no one will get,
I got tired of the phone and your voice in my head.
I tried on and on, but I walk alone.
I pictured something different
Or raised the bar too high,
So I'd rather just pick up the pieces and say goodbye.
