Sick Cycle

Now I'm on my last breath

Doesn't make it easier to start over

When there's nothing left here but regret

I'm still going through the motions in my head

Let's pretend you're dead

Everyone looks relieved

Does anyone feel like me?

Everyone gets deceived

Endless sick cycle

Everyone gets to breathe

Happiness make believe

It's like pulling teeth

Endlessly

Takes time to make go away

Push it back and let it decay

Hearts never seem to escape disarray

Lies are what scream in my head

Trying to pretend that you're dead

Words that were best left unsaid were still said

Now I'm on my first death

Doesn't make it easier to trust myself

Knowing everything I said was meant for you

Inconsistent with repent

Let's pretend you're dead

Everyone's disbelief

Everyone looks at me

Have I failed to see

Hindsight's killing me

Everyone gets to breathe

Happiness make believe

It's like pulling teeth

Hopelessly
