Let me sing you song
...of everything that went wrong
Death on the mind, nothing in my heart
I'm empty and without hope, I'm falling apart
Trust issues, trust issues
I wonder if it's because I've been used?
Saying I'm sorry like a tape stuck on repeat
Apologies no longer my white flag but rather, my defeat
Tears fall down as easily as ice melts
I'm going numb to all of the pain I've felt...
Screaming to the stars in the dark, I get no reply
What a shame my only friend is the night sky
I'm ashamed of the skin I live in, I'd rather destroy it with blades
I can't stand to look at my body, let alone my face
I'm trying to forget my past forever,
But it's hard when the present and future are no better
I know what I need to do, I need to take that leap...
Watch out below, I probably won't land on my feet
I can hit the ground running, but I'll probably fall on my face
I can try to get back up, but I can't keep up the pace
"Fuck society," how many times have we heard that before?
"Live life," "Don't give up," "Fuck the world."
To be honest it's getting boring, I'm tired of playing the fool
I'm trying, I'm trying, but getting nowhere is getting old
"Winners never quit," says the ones in first place
What about those finishing last in the race?
Losers, losers, we run anyway
We try and we think, "maybe one day"
So I'll keep running, until my lungs give out
And I won't ever give up, despite all my doubts
