Do you ever feel like you are a coward?

Fighting a losing battle?

Give in to the disconnect

Personified through words you wish you were brave enough to say

But, it’s always too late

Losing touch with a living mistake

Fist through the wall, I didn’t end up like you at all

Don’t ask don’t tell mentality, as I struggle with my identity

You can feel it boiling over

Is this what we call normal?

Grinding down my teeth

Give me substance, give me chemical relief

Cause I choose to ignore the ghosts that follow me

Can’t waste my time living for things that I can't see

You’ve got a sharpened tongue, cut me to pieces

“Your only flaw is your lack of self control.”

Some days I wish you could piece me back together

But at least you had the last word before I fell apart

The passiveness is killing me

No solution

No reprieve

I am the boy that you raised me to be

Cut me to pieces, abandon me

We’ve had better days

Before resentment boiled under my skin
