[Verse 1]
Wake up every day paralyzed
Try to medicate, so I can hide it
Numb out all the pain, can't be surprised
If I'm staring at my face and can't recognise it, (ooh)
Try to turn off my thoughts but they're consuming, (ooh)
I try to cover up my scars but it's hard cause

[Chorus]
All my life, mistaken
Left behind, forsaken
I stayed quiet, complacent
Did my time, was patient

All my life, mistaken
Left behind, forsaken
I stayed quiet, complacent
Did my time, was patient

[Verse 2]
Barricade lies, hideaway
Locked it inside, let it marinate
Walking around like I'm not afraid
Nothing taken over me, (ooh)
Try to turn off my thoughts but they're consuming, (ooh)
I try to cover up my scars but it's hard cause
[Chorus]
All my life, mistaken
Left behind, forsaken
I stayed quiet, complacent
Did my time, was patient

All my life, mistaken
Left behind, forsaken
I stayed quiet, complacent
Did my time, was patient

[Bridge]
Hid from a million lies
Ran away, I fell like a thousand times
Finally, getting tired
Play the game, hoping I get out alive

[Chorus]
All my life, mistaken
Left behind, forsaken
I stayed quiet, complacent
Did my time, was patient

All my life, mistaken
Left behind, forsaken
I stayed quiet, complacent
Did my time, was patient
All my life, mistaken
Left behind, forsaken
I stayed quiet, complacent
Did my time, was patient
