[Verse 1]
Occasionally I feel like the walls around are closing in on me
Physically I feel sometimes I need seclusion to be free
The irony, at last, I see reality is my perception
And my personality is my reflection

[Chorus](x2)
I must eliminate and change yesterday's
Yesterday's pains today

[Verse 2]
I need to be set free from these smiles
That are scarring my skin sarcastically
And cause it seems to comfort and freeze
In full around me mentally
The irony, at last, I see reality is my deception
And my personality is my deflection

[Chorus](x2)
I must eliminate and change yesterday's
Yesterday's pains today

[Bridge]
Can I make it?
I'll try!
Can I take it?
I'll try!

[Verse 3]
I finally feel my wounds are healing
Releasing and pouring out of me
The pressure's success becoming apparently
A bigger part of me
I'm looking back at the things that I can't remove
My past is ok with me
The future's brighter than I could imagine it to be

[Chorus](x2)
I must eliminate and change yesterday's
Yesterday's pains today
