It’s just been one of those days
where I can’t see the point anymore
It’s just been one of those days feeling anxious,
reaching out, but ignored
If only I could know how to come clean and let this go
Instead of keeping habits I can’t refrain from
Well maybe that’s just me, seeing so indifferently
There’ll be no rhyme or reason
or a shoulder to lean on
It's no secret, cause I can see that
I'm still busy being pissed at my reflection
What’s said and done from myself I can’t out run.
I’m hanging on to this, and the pain held in my head
With a life lesson I've learned of "don't let anybody in”
Putting on another charade won't make it all go away
You want honesty?
Acting sorry for myself is comforting
Searching for something that could kill me quick
Give me the antidote for the mess I'm in
No guidance, I'm lifeless, and so headstrong
Help me find the difference in right and wrong
I know I’ll just end up standing in smoke,
so I’ll choke and invoke my former self as a ghost
I know I’ll just end up standing in smoke
with the words that I wrote but never spoke
Strapped in for the long hall,
I’d best learn how to enjoy the downfall
Is there a reason to fight? I’ll wilt away with no end in sight
I’ve been here before but I don’t recognize it anymore
They say pain makes you stronger, I’m weaker than ever
Will it ever end?
A feeling I discarded, since the moment all this started
I'll never fit into the shape you made
Could anyone just take my place?
Restless and hopeless, spend every given day
to waste it all away I’m wasted away.
The verse "Can't even buy a coffee without exploiting someone" got me. It really hits hard. For the entire length of the album it felt like the end of the world.
But to be perfectly honest, it's just how life is these days. And it's fucked up. szczur
