Lyrics

Some days I feel fine
Other days I feel the worst
I'm always second best
I never come in first
Rejection breaks my soul
To where I feel my hope is dying
Why would I fight back
When I'm so tired of trying?
Why should I start to try
What would I leave behind?
A half ass life
That I half ass designed?
People come and go
They're known for moving on
No one ever stays
They won't miss me when I'm gone
Today's a Wednesday morning
I'm already getting drunk
I'll keep my statement short and sweet
My ship already sunk
Sailing hope has left the dock
It's getting lost at sea
It's getting swept away
By a not so gentle breeze
The ocean can be peaceful
But it's also full of harm
I've hidden all my hurt
With some ink inside my arm
I covered up scars
Wounds I couldn't bear to see
But what I really can't face
Is a mirror showing me
It's a delicate dance I do between happy and sad
Life is going great, but in a flash it then goes bad
Everyone's been saying "Krystal, you have changed"
I'm holding onto memories and keeping them in frames
The light and the dark is flashing like a strobe
My pain is where I'm comfortable, it's always been my home
Tiptoe from the dark and light, don't know another way
The black or in the white, I think that I'm just grey
Left in the wilderness
The trees are tall and green
I look into the pond
And the reflection's so mean
My thoughts are the wolves
They'll always be around
I'm no longer safe
Have to go back underground
Is this all just in my head
Or has my frame started to crack?
I feel as though if everyone
Is just turning their backs
On me, on everything we have
I feel it in my soul
A year has passed me by
And all these issues still hold
Sometimes I'm on an island
It's a land of broken dreams
I cling to all my failures
Now that no one's on my team
I let my mind go
In all directions I don't choose
Even though I'm in the grey
I'm soaking in my blues
I could call S.O.S
And tell them that I'm lost
But I don't think that I can afford
Everything that it would cost
This island has no white walls
But the night paints the sky black
I'm hungry for affection
It's been the main thing I lack
The trees begin to sway
And it's almost like a waltz
The waves are crashing at my feet
The sting of all the salt
On battle scars, on open wounds
Can't wash away my past
The tides are rising, I sink in
The air is fading fast
It's a delicate dance I do between happy and sad
Life is going great, but in a flash it then goes bad
Everyone's been saying "Krystal, you have changed"
I'm holding onto memories and keeping them in frames
The light and the dark is flashing like a strobe
My pain is where I'm comfortable, it's always been my home
Tiptoe from the dark and light, don't know another way
The black or in the white, I think that I'm just grey
Left in the wilderness
The trees are tall and green
I look into the pond
And the reflection's so mean
My thoughts are the wolves
They'll always be around
I'm no longer safe
Have to go back underground
All the color leaves my eyes
I'm sinking into grey
It might not be the worst
But that's not much to say
Hope will breed the misery
And fantasy kills chance
Both devils on my shoulders
I'm so tired of this dance
Maybe I should just be alone
And live without the colors
Spare my friends and family
And any future lovers
They never deserved this
And I don't deserve them
I'm gonna lose them anyway
It's a matter of when
Quiet feeling quieter
The chaos might subside
Maybe this means I'm getting closer
Maybe I could die
A break would be nice
But life is not that fair
I have to put the work in
Have to try my best to care
I write these words on paper
And I'm shocked what's in the ink
Like what I wrote moments ago
Is that how I can think?
The chance and possibility
That maybe I could cope
That's why the grey's not black
Cuz there's a little bit of hope
