Second Chances

I hate myself

I try to bite it back

No one else can tell

No shame behind this mask

Live for the thrill, that got me by

Ignoring every warning sign

Now I'm cruising on a flat line

You ask something

Hear it all the time

"Hey how's it go?"

"Oh well you know, I'm doing fine"

Give myself second chances

Now I'm pushing five

"Hey how's it go?"

"Well I don't know, don't think I'm fine"

Oh, oh

Medications

I went to drugs before

And it saved me

For a while I'm pretty sure

Sobering up, and biting my tongue

And ignoring all of my problems

Wanted someone to see

Oh, you ask something

Hear it all the time

"Hey how's it go?"

"Oh well you know, I'm doing fine"

Give myself second chances

Now I'm pushing nine

"Hey how's it go?"

"Well I don't know, don't think I'm fine"

Oh, oh

You ask something

Hear it all the time

"Hey how's it go?"

"Oh well you know, I'm doing fine"

Give myself second chances

Now I'm pushing nine

"Hey how's it go?"

"Well I don't know, don't think I'm fine"

Second chances

Take for granted

Everything I know

Take two seconds

Breathe and let it go
