I'll Break It Myself

Wake up, that mirror is like a prison
I want to kill everyone in it
I hate the way he fucking fakes his smile
Like he isn't in some sort of denial
Of his insecurities, his flaws
He thinks that no ones noticed it at all
What a god damn liar he is to think
He's the only one who sees
A scared kid with no direction, and lost sense of all affection
A cold heart that seems inviting but everyone can see he's fighting
Him self every day of every year he's so scared to be here
Facing himself alone as sorrow starts to feel like home
Beats up himself like it'll make his skin thicker or help him get his way
A self deprecating bastard he wants to live his whole life plastered
So reliant on intoxication as if it were the only medication
For the shit he feels inside, that asshole hates his life
A scared kid with no direction, and lost sense of all affection
A cold heart that seems inviting but everyone can see he's fighting
Him self every day of every year he's so scared to be here
Facing himself alone as sorrow starts to feel like home
When I finally break that glass, make sure his shit doesn't last
Will you be there to watch me pick up the pieces
Will you see what I grow from? Will you see what I've become?
Still scared I'm so afraid, to even speak my name
Don't think that I'm deserving or a person worth preserving
Leave me alone so i know what I've chose
To be a scared kid with no direction I lost sense of all affection
My cold heart might seem inviting but I'm constantly fighting
Off everyone every year I'm to scared to stay here
I'll face myself alone with sorrow that now is my home

Leave Me Behind

Darkened walls, sleepless nights, I don’t wanna get out of bed to fight
Another day, another time, I’m running on fumes and nothings right
The calls are short, these days are long, I don’t wanna love you anymore
I’m not in charge of how I feel but how the fuck am I supposed to deal
When you’re tearing me apart, do you know that
You’re killing me and I wish it was worth it
You seem so far away these days I hope that it’ll change
But I’m not holding on to much but I know that I’ll stay
A year so long I fucked it up I look around and realize that I’m stuck
You keep me here it’s still unclear what you want and that’s what I fear
So leave me be or take me whole I've earned that and I think it’s cold
The way you act it’s like a game I’m not here for you to exchange
With anyone who will show you some sort of love
Guess this is it am I really giving up?
On all these hopes and dreams that I wanted with you
Wish I’d been good enough before you said “we’re through”
