Questioning myself as if there's someone else inside
The quicker I'm alone, the shorter I'm alive
And this liquor isn't easy over time
And the battle wounds I rock are turning disease into rhyme
And I just might start to let you down
I'm sorry for the way I look and how I really sound
Leave it up to me to let my lover bleed
And I could just leave when you need my relief, please
Everything hurts, but you would hurt for anything
And nothing ever works unless you're truly settling
A life of awful timing, a book without the binding
The characters inside me create the silver lining
If you could see what I see, you'd see what I mean
Countless fights, countless rhymes
Countless times I want to leave this life
Better off livin' a lie
'Cause once you go down, you go forever
And I just might start to let you down
I'm sorry for the way I look and how I really sound
Leave it up to me to let my lover bleed
And I could just leave when you need my relief, please
Might start to let you down
I'm sorry for the way I look and how I really sound
Leave it up to me to let my lover bleed
And I could just leave when you need my relief, please
Everything hurts, but you would hurt for anything
And nothing ever works unless you're truly settling
A life of awful timing, a book without the binding
The characters inside me create the silver lining
If you could see what I see, you'd see what I mean
