It seems that I've lost faith in the things that kept me complacent as a child.
Where was god when you could barely breathe?
A benevolence unmatched, a lifetime with you wouldn't mean shit.
You left me here alone in the cold
I'm not that hopeful kid you knew from two years back.
A skeptical fuck is all thats left of me these days.
Don't fucking tell me what to think, I've lost all hope in everything.
I don't need anyone or anything to tell me who I am.
A lifetime with you is a lifetime alone, a lifetime alone.
We follow blindly like sheep to the slaughter, but I'm taking myself back.
Don't ever tell me who I am or where I'm going.
He'll spend until you're broke, take until you're broken, but in the end you'll never be where you want to be.

She's too preoccupied with the current fashions and fleeting trends.
But she was fleeting too.
You gave her the world, she just wanted more.
I take back the apologies I never meant, those half-hearted complements
and a friendship I invested so much time into.
When will you realize that you don't mean a thing to anyone but yourself?
How's this for fucking closure?
You took it away from us.
Two years back, I thought I had what I lack now.
A place where I feel comfortable, safe in my own skin.
It seems I've lost it now.

I'm just waiting for something, a helping, a change in routine,
but for now I'll stay in the rut I dug myself, being constanly awoken by the sunlight streaming through my blinds.
You can call me lazy, but I disagree.
I'm just waiting for perfection to find me.
I can see you're going places, while I just watch my life pass me by.
You worked hard to be content, I guess I'll have to realize that content's the best I'll get
The best I'll get.
I dug this hole too deep,
I can't climb out this time.
I can't get up, I can't get out, I'm still trapped underneath these sheets.
I've hit rock bottom and no one's here to help me up.
I'm just kidding myself, I'm only happy when I am asleep.

You can take another sip of that drink, you're dead anyway.
Rotted black from the inside out, not a salvageable piece was found.
Another broken home, empty houses lead children to ditches, you took us for granted.
We stay loyal like dogs, forever and ever and ever.
But you were broken from the start and you'll stay broken for ages.
I'd follow you into hell, if I could.
I spent my nights up tearing my voice apart, but no one ever comes.
Nothing ever changes, nothing gets better.
You kept me stuck here, not going anywhere anytime soon, but I'd still take a bullet for you.
Take me for granted, 'cause when the alcohol catches up to you I'm sure, I won't be there for you anymore.
An angry drunk, a hopeless fuck, and I'm not waiting to see that upside, an optimism not found in me.
I'm still the one whe's fucked up, still the one who's wrong.
I'm sleeping in, I'll just sleep in.
