Breathe deep, calm down
This (unneccesary) stress is killing me
Back up, leave it alone
It doesn't matter what was meant to be
You crack your whip and I obey
I jump through flaming hoops for you
I can't continue on this way
I feel I have to change
Neglected, rejected
You treat me like I'm defected
Melancholy, dejected
I won't come out unaffected
I spend my time blaming you
But is it all your fault?
I know that I have problems too
I feel I have to change
Go ahead, pile it on
Dump all your shit on me
Stack it up above my head
And I'll drown in all my guilt
This false sense of power is fleeting
I drape my own reality over my eyes
Just so you can rip it down
Each time it falls, you rip a peice out of the walls
Little by little the foundation crumbles
Scratches and gashes, my insides begin to bleed
Your fault, my fault
It doesn't really matter
Internalize, lock up the vault
But the holes you poke bleed like rain
Vicious cycle, never ending
Emotions build up with no release
Try to stop it all in vain
Will I ever find inner peace?
