lyrics

It's been four years
since I've last had the thought
I've embraced my own reflection
on the damaged goods you've bought
And I tried to see through
but these eyes are so weak
from looking at the sun
and watching it stare back at me

I seem to call it off so early lately
and hide from the truth

And I can't change
the way you wish
things could be
But this might be
the best of what we haven't seen
and I cant breathe
just let me get to sleep

You walk a thin line between the fiction and the truth
with a story so convoluted that no one can tell it wasn't you,
or your friends, or anyone they knew
You stack a second life up against a wall made up of white lies
I hope you realize
When the pieces bend
You'll bend, you'll break, you'll fall, you'll snap, you'll shatter

When you're alone
they don't know you're breathing
they can't tell you're screaming
When you're alone
they don't know your even
broken, defeated
When you're alone
they don't know you're breathing
they can't hear you screaming

When you try to hold onto something
it falls apart and it fades like your memories
when you try to hold onto something
you try but your hands they shake
You struggle just to cling to pieces of your memories that
would make you cringe, but in my mind they're the best I'd ever had
You try to hold onto something
You try but your hands they shake
