I couldn’t see the reasoning;
Existing is better than living
Sinking is better than swimming

Everyone around me
Seems to have it together
Dwelling on what I could’ve done better
A far cry from what I have in the present
To push the envelope and pen my own letter

The thought process is fucking flawed
Its two steps back to go one forward
If I’m a failure
My struggles are yours
Why haven’t I felt this remorse before?

Repent for your sins
Brace for this storm and the ice-cold winds
I don’t know where to begin
Why am I putting myself through this again

I couldn’t see the reasoning;
Existing is better than living
Sinking is better than swimming

Obsessed with my indecision
Keeping me bound to a makeshift prison
To separate the fact from the fiction
Please give me the life I envisioned

This attack on the system
Doesn’t feel scripted
Doesn’t feel finished
Like it hasn’t been written
This shit hinges on the outcome of a counter prescription

Is this what you want
To watch me scrap and claw
Til' I don’t feel
A thing anymore
Anymore
I couldn’t see the reasoning;
Existing is better than living
Sinking is better than swimming
