It seems like I'm back in this place again

Like I never left

As if there'd ever be the briefest relief in strain

Don't hold your breath

My final note I leave will read

Things could have been so much worse

I hurt for all the wrong reasons

Of course you're only there when it benefits you

Put yourself in my place and tell me what should be done

Push me over the edge and don't regret

when I fall flat on my face

How can I unlace harnesses holding me to the sub-base?

Awfully luckless

Lovelorn and rusted into a shadow of what

I once was when everything wasn't grey

They don't see

they don't understand what I've been put through

The things I say won't always stay true but if I may

Let me reveal to you everything the

shade doesn't want you to see through

Will you watch as I talk with walls I walk along?

Dragging blood down every single hall

to paint every pain that you've left me

Let me feel empty just as I should be

Deprivation sinks into my keepsakes

Hesitations risk everything we've made ours

But this is nothing new (this is nothing new)

What's the use? (What's the use?)

What's the use if I'm just tried as something unwelcome?

Another line for everyone helping me

to swallow pride and bury misfortunes

I have come to find that everything's

worsening and if I die far before I intend to

keep me alive in your memory

Separate me from my lies and the morbid aversions

I cannot decide if I deserve anything but severed ties

and these torturous horrors every day and night

I still fear looking forward at my

future life without your reinforcement

As hurtful roses, the final blow you spoke to me was

Don't hold your breath
