Feel suffocated, caught up in your words like sustenance

You talk about me as if I’m already dead

Every day’s the same old shit

“He was such a promise kid”

So if it’s downhill from here then what secures my footing?

So sick of losing room to breathe

Why can’t you all just leave me be

Don’t want to talk through anything but you keep on pushing

Because I can’t fight back on good intentions

Words fall short of breaking tension

And if it’s all downhill from here then why am I not moving?

I'm just another failure (A hard fight like it’s always been)

And I’m prone to misbehavior

But I‘ve got my second wind

And I don’t believe in saviors

Keep your absolutes

I hope they work for you

But I’m not up to you

And I worry

These confrontations make me sick, I’m already over it

And I worry

Complications make me sick

I look you in the eyes and just walk away

And I worry, and it makes me sick

I look you in the eyes and walk away

And I worry, and it makes me sick

I look you in the eyes and walk...

I'm just another failure (A hard fight like it’s always been)

And I’m prone to misbehavior

But I‘ve got my second wind

And I don’t believe in saviors

Keep your absolutes

I hope they work for you

But I’m not up to you
