lyrics

My vision feels so jaded,
and my thoughts just might as well.
When all our cheer is faded,
we're left with living hell.

Meet me.
First day of therapy.
Do I tell you what I want?
Or only what you need?
You can't pretend,
But you know I'm not your friend.
Don't ask me how it's been,
can we reschedule this again?


Any promises to me are broken instantly
how can I tell what's true
when your demons still show through.

And I assure you, as deep as memories go.
Just when you thought you're on a roll.

When letting go's the last thing you can do.
You've left a scar, but you'll pull it open soon.
It all went by so quickly, I just meet you at a glance.
Just get this through your head;
No second chance.

eyes sore
It's just now dark, so tell me more
I'd stay up all night, just to get the answer I'm looking for.

I can't say,
but there's something in the way
No matter what holds me back, I know I'll have my hand at fate.

Any hope that I could dream
Spasms incessantly.
And I can't throw it away
It always changes day to day.

But I assure you, the way things are is so.
When all of us reach our all time low.
Yet on we go.

The tables have turned
is there any number of words
that can turn things back the way they were.
If you need a name to blame
my name's in shame, I'll take the pain.
But don't be afraid.

It might sound like I'm reading lines
but I've seen the signs
And I know all the connections
My life is deception
But If I cling to the only plus I know
I'd be safe from the darkness that still grows.
Yet off it strolls.

I've jeopardized myself
I've made a mess of things.
Why expect so much for me
When I turned it down for them.
And in the dark,
theres a single light that glows
Keeps throwing me back, and know I know.

When all I fear is your fear of fear itself
Stuck in my mind, above all else
It all went by too quickly, and accepting will not do.
To me there's nothing more
All I'm asking for.

Seeing it first hand is hard to tell.
I keep equating everything to hell.
Inflexible for some
But submissive for the rest.
I'll never truly know what's for the best.

I may hold a double standard, but behind it there's a source
In being who I am, there's no remorse.

It's what I've found.
It's harder now.
I can't hold on.
When all is wrong.

It's what I've found.
It's harder now.
Try moving on.
The past is gone.
