Vicious Cycle - Intellectual

[Verse 1: Karissa Pasquarella]

Have you ever been at war with yourself?

I'm waving a white flag, ignoring everyone's help

And I've been this way for as long as I remember (Remember)

But I guess I just assumed that it would all get better

[Pre-Chorus: Karissa Pasquarella, Randy Pasquarella]

Time will tell

I'm living, but what does it take to feel alive?

You gave me life

When I felt dead inside

I'm turning my back on myself again

I don't know why I do this

I'm getting older, don't think I'll grow out of it

It's a vicious cycle I'm stuck in

With time there are no guarantees

But I'll still blame you for, for all the suffering

And all the shit you did to me

And now those who love me

Will suffer with me (Will suffer with me)

Because I didn't do the right thing when it was needed

And now I've lost my way

I'm turning my back on myself again

I don't know why I do this

I'm getting older, don't think I'll grow out of it

It's a vicious cycle I'm stuck in

Oh God, I wish I could, I wish I could stop it

Fighting my thoughts over and over again

It's a vicious cycle I'm stuck in

(I'm sorry to my past self)

(And I don't blame you at all)

[Outro: Karissa Pasquarella, Randy Pasquarella]

Time will tell

I'm living, but what does it take to feel alive?

You gave me life

When I felt dead inside
