Lyrics

Awake at night
I lay there worried
Waiting for my demon
Who’s been lurking
Dark thoughts and
Obsessive torment
Forcing my brain
To examine closely
Every syllable
That’s been spoken
Could be a threat
I’m treading slowly
Not to alarm
My emotional motives
That grabs my focus
Who will notice?
Oh,
Talk about a tragedy
Where did it go bad for me
I don’t even know
Maybe when I was 14
Maybe in the 4th grade
Sitting there, dictate
Writing on a notepad
I don’t even know
What to feel this day
Went on a first date
Looked in her eyes
And saw heartbreak
Wasn’t what she wanted
She’s dealing with pain
Pulled all my flaws
And what did you say?
Tragedy!
Look at what happened
I wish I could help
But I look down on you
Secretly laugh at you
Look at what I have
And look at what you don’t
I call it a joke,
You wouldn’t know
Let’s not pretend
That nobody knows
Everybody knows
They just don’t care
If you’re alive
Or if you’re 6 feet deep
Laughing playing it off
They’ll call it a Tragedy!
Lonely in my room
I deep fake
All my emotions
Leading to my fate
Creating
A new persona
Not an imitate
Hiding my pain
Don’t look
That way.
Look into my eyes
And see what I made
A smile that I carved
Onto my face
It looks so real
You can’t see
My pain
Till it’s too late
Suicidal
Looking two faced
Digging my grave
That’s my fate
Losing my faith
In the Lord
That’s child’s play
Bashing on my door
Yelling at me
Till the locks break
Had a stressful life
But I swear I’m okay,
No way
Lying to myself
Saying that
I need change
Really
Just caught up
In my ways
Because
I can make progress
But I can never
Make change
This is who I am
A castaway
Stranded away
Still trying to figure who I am
Looking back at my life
Like what did I do wrong
When I was 13
I made an attempt on my life
Then when I was 14
I crafted a mask with a smile
17 sitting alone in church, talking to God
But when I turned 18
I was sitting in therapy, talking about change
But my therapist wanted to be paid,
And then what did she say?
Tragedy!
Look at what happened
I wish I could help
I look down on you
Secretly laugh at you
Look at what I have
And look at what you don’t
I call it a joke,
You wouldn’t know
Let’s not pretend
That nobody knows
Everybody knows
They just don’t care
If you’re alive
Or if you’re 6 feet deep
Laughing playing it off
They’ll call it a Tragedy!
Sitting in my car with a notepad
Writing about my life, how it’s all bad
Listening to beats to think of lyrics
That’ll impact me
Free styling
Till I can’t even breathe
I want to make something
That’ll help other people
Who feel the same as me
Stranded in the deep
At the end of the day
We are all on the same road
Trying to find peace
Cease to exist
When my issues
Grow to big
I push them off
Just to relate
Like I was that kid
That never fit in
Listening to trap
Drinking with friends
Trashed at 2 a.m.
Trying to sober up
So I can get home
To lay in bed
Regret the choices
I hated who I am
Who I was
Was someone
I couldn’t comprehend
Made amends
With my feelings
Just temporarily
So I can figure out
What I’ve been
Feeling lately
Goals I want to achieve
Or change them maybe
Slowly growing crazy, hazy
Staring at my screen
Writing my thoughts out daily
Who cares what I have to say
Smerck on your face and what’d you say
Tragedy!
Look at what happened
I wish I could help
I look down on you
Secretly laugh at you
Look at what I have
And look at what you don’t
I call it a joke,
You wouldn’t know
Let’s not pretend
That nobody knows
Everybody knows
They just don’t care
If you’re alive
Or if you’re 6 feet deep
Laughing playing it off
They’ll call it a Tragedy!
Barely a man just
Look in the mirror
You’re 21 years old
Yeah call it a joke
Everyone left you
You feel all alone
Talking about your plans
But you never reach
Your goals
I want you to fail
I want you to fall
I want to watch you
Lose everything you are
Cus’ what you are
Is embarrassing to say
A broken loser
Who’s stranded away
So at the end of the day
You’re just a Tragedy…
