Do you ever feel like you are a coward?
Fighting a losing battle?
Give in to the disconnect
Personified through words you wish you were brave enough to say
But, it’s always too late
Losing touch with a living mistake
Fist through the wall, I didn’t end up like you at all
Don’t ask don’t tell mentality, as I struggle with my identity
You can feel it boiling over
Is this what we call normal?
Grinding down my teeth
Give me substance, give me chemical relief
Cause I choose to ignore the ghosts that follow me
Can’t waste my time living for things that I can't see
You’ve got a sharpened tongue, cut me to pieces
“Your only flaw is your lack of self control.”
Some days I wish you could piece me back together
But at least you had the last word before I fell apart
The passiveness is killing me
No solution
No reprieve
I am the boy that you raised me to be
Cut me to pieces, abandon me
We’ve had better days
Before resentment boiled under my skin
