I wake up and remember who I am
The product of obscure design
A pent up agitated mind

Lost sight of my most calculated plans
Broke every promise to myself
A pattern I know all too well

Direction is harder to come by when I'm all alone
Connections are carelessly severed when I need them most
For what?

Search for another excuse, or regret the truth as soon as you find it
Put up with mental abuse, by pretentious fools who think that they're so open-minded
I can't stand biting my tongue, but when I'm candid you always lash out and deny it
So when you're coming undone, remember honesty only hurts more when you fight it

It's difficult to say, if I'll ever find a way to clean the mess inside my mind
And I've tried to put to rest, the pounding in my chest that causes me to fall behind
I've been here before, but I don't want to stay, I'm planning my escape
So unlock the door, and though I am afraid, I'll brave the world away

I hear them calling my name, and now there's nowhere to hide, there's nowhere to hide
I'm throwing out all the shame, that hangs in my heavy mind, in my heavy mind
Get up before it's too late, this bed is covered in lies, it's covered in lies
I'm moving out of the shade, so I can welcome the light, I'll welcome the light
