lyrics

I've gotta believe in something more
I've gotta believe the right from wrong
But now I don't think I'm so sure
I'm breaking my back just to get by
Meeting expectation gets so dry and now
It's here I question why
I hate who I am and what I've been
Its a matter of time before I meet my destruction
I'm waking up, falling out again

I play it over every single time I reach a dead end line
When everything is gone
I just cant seem to get it right I think I need to change and make
A transition
Why cant you see
That the person I wanna be
Is not far away
Now far away

Beautifully I'm a disaster
Because I cant change much faster
Im wasting time, wasting time again
Hold it close its all you see
You wont know what it means to me
And all you have is all you'll ever need
And I hate who I am and what I've been
It's a matter of time before I meet my destruction
Im waking up, falling out again

I play it over every single time I reach a dead end line
When everything is gone
I just cant seem to get it right I think I need to change and make
A transition
Why cant you see
That the person I wanna be
Is not far away
Now far away

I'm packing my bags
I'm leaving everything behind
Forgetting what I once was amidst these empty skies
I've never felt so old
And god damn I feel alive
When the minutes just feel like years decay you realize

That you need to change this face
You cant replay this tape

(I just feel so insecure with these waves crashing down on me
I cant tell if lights will call or I'll stay lost at sea)

I play it over every single time I reach a dead end line
When everything is gone
I just cant seem to get it right I think I need to change and make
A transition
Why cant you see
That the person I wanna be
Is not far away
Now far away
