Lyrics:
Breathing gets harder when you're around
plus the weight on my chest from this town.
What can I say?
What hasn't already been said today?
It's not even worth my time
'cause I could wait for the end of the world.
As long as I hold no ground to place my feet,
there's no hope.
This constant struggle in my head versus my heart is not okay.
It's not okay to be this way.
I need to stop while I'm ahead
'cause what is it all worth in the end?
When all the time I'll spend
will bring me right back where I began.
I`ll let you know from the gate,
cause I gotta be the bigger man.
You really need to understand you take a lot for granted;
I'm the one who usually will take these chances
but I gotta be out so I
been there, and done that,
and I'm not running back to you,
even though I want to. But I know I can't have you 'cause
I could wait for the end of the world.
As long as I hold no ground to place my feet,
there's no hope.
This constant struggle with my head versus my heart is not okay. It's not okay to be this way.
I'm gonna pray for this to go away
for my sanity`s sake.
This is more than I can take.
This constant struggle with my head versus my heart is not okay. It's not okay to feel this way.
It's not okay to be this way, but I'm not running away.

To put in words what I feel right now
would be an injustice
to describe how much of a fool I was.
I spent my days climbing your walls,
never considering the cost
If I ever were to lose my grip.
But I couldn't blame you,
Lord how could I?
When I was the one who started this fight.
I could hate you now and forever,
but I promised myself things would get better when
I put you back in the past like we never met.
But until then I'm going to have to bite this bullet.
At least you won't have to.
(So where is everything I left in the dark unsaid?
All the words I kept locked way in me.)
(You were the person that I thought that would end this quest;
fix a cold hard mess, be my missing piece.)
I sought the best in you when
(everybody told me to write you off)
but I found the worst in me and
(it always seemed you had your fingers crossed)
and all I have that's left
is every word we said replaying back in my head.
I've been under your rule but I think its time I got over you.
I could hate you now and forever,
but I promised myself things would get better when
I put you back in the past like we never met.
But until then I'm going to have to bite this bullet.
At least you won't have to.
I can forgive and forget
but I have just one regret:
Its that I ever let somebody like you in.
I could hate you now and forever,
but I promised myself things would get better when
I leave you back in the past like we never met.
But until then I'm going to have to bite this bullet.
I could hate you now and forever,
but I promised myself things would get better when
I leave you back in the past like we never met.
But until then I'm going to have to bite this bullet.

You're so desperate for attention,
begging anyone for affection.
Did you ever learn to love yourself?
You play the damsel in distress better than anyone, I confess.
I'm trying my best to be considerate towards you.
You're a liar when you said you deserve better
'cause if that mattered
you wouldn't be pointing that gun
straight at your head (as you point the finger).
No one ever said this would be getting easier.
I'm not a perfect saint, never claimed to be,
but you won't be finding any truth in his bed sheets, no.
You got away girl,
but you can't run from the mess you made.
If there's one thing that you learn in this world,
It's that you reap what you sow in this world.
And I hope to God
you'll take the time to realize your mistakes,
I hope that you see the lies that you feed your head
over and over again.
You're a liar when you said you deserve better
'cause if that mattered
you wouldn't be pointing that gun
straight at your head (as you point the finger).
No one ever said this would be getting easier.
I'm not a perfect saint, never claimed to be,
but you won't be finding any truth in his bed sheets, no.
Oh no!
raaaaahhhHHHHH, GO!
You're a liar when you said you deserve better
'cause if that mattered
you wouldn't be pointing that gun
straight at your head (as you point the finger).
No one ever said this would be getting easier.
I'm not a perfect saint, never claimed to be,
but you won't be finding any truth in his bed sheets, no.

I don't believe in coincidence,
but it's hard to be so confident .
When everything I want is just a curse,
and decisions that I make
end up getting someone hurt.
And I'm so sick
of this bittersweet
taste in my mouth.
All that we gain in life is lost in the end;
buried under ground.
I'm so done with this world
and all that it has taught me
I can't agree with anything I see
when I'm suffering right now.
And to think
it's kept me away from you.
And you, from me too.
So let's set this off tonight.
We'll take this fire
and burn all obstacles in our path.
I've never felt so driven to face my fears
and leave them all in the past.
With all
the rest of my demons I've seen face-to-face.
They all
laid to wast,
and I'm not going back.
I'm so sick
of this bittersweet
taste in my mouth.
All that we gain in life is lost in the end;
buried under ground.
I'm so done with this world
and all that it has taught me
I can't agree with anything I see
when I'm suffering right now.
I don't believe in coincidence.
Falling apart sometimes is the best restart when you're building back to you.
