My fists were clenched and tears were my face
As I told my dad most of my days are plagued with pain
He said "I've known about what you carry for a long time"
I can see it written in your eyes
Your smile is genuine, but is quickly fleeting when on your face
And if it helps at all son, I think about you every night when I pray"
Here it comes
Here it comes
Here it comes
Here it comes
Not again
I've been doing my best
I've been bearing the load
But most nights get cold when I start feeling like I'm all alone
So if there's a purpose to this
At the end of the road
Grant me a strong back to shoulder it and find my way home
I don't know my tears are falling
But I've been trying to be
Better than I have been
I'll seize this moment
I never want it
To end
I was only 4, happy, innocent then hurt,
by weaponized scare tactics used by the church
And although I've forgiven, I don't think Ill forget that one
A congregation scared shitless spreading baseless fear as unconditional love
Your push the fear while you claim it's all about love
At the end of the day, I know change is on me
It's unfair to rely on someone else to fucking save me
So while I complain, I'll push forward confidently
Take a few deeps breaths,
And let go gracefully
Here it comes
Here it comes
Here it comes
Here it comes
Not again
I don't know my tears are falling
But I've been trying to be
Better than I have been
I'll seize this moment
I never want it
To end

high risk high reward
all is void and I get no support
get what I put forth
static noise is all I do this for
why cant we just commit and making something significant
there is no foundation and too much pride
as soon as I hit this peak
my vision will be complete
my only action is to gratify
vacations and holidays supplement my will to stay
the expiration date is far too near
what seemed like the right choice was only a decoy
to take me away from my command
think that you are one of us
pretend that you put us up
we all realized you just don't give a fuck
could you care for once is that so tough
logically what seemed to be the right choice tore me to pieces
now you see that time spent pondering has brought you nothing
we are going nowhere
all these setbacks just won't stop me
you mean nothing
its only up from here

You say "I'm always wanting more,
I want to feel loved, I just don't know what to do"
But when you keep me at your arm's length
How could I ever reach you?
There's a distance between the bodies in our bed
Greater than the one between us and the stars
I am finally unburdened of your love
Let this home become a house again
From ours to mine to empty
Left for another to find it the same way
We've heard the message so many times
It's time we just hang up the phone
Can't say it feels all that different
If I want to be lonesome I'll just be alone
I'll try not to miss you while you're here
But the clock is ticking rough
I think you mean what you say
But I don't think it's enough
I think that I still love you
But I really don't like you that much
I'm seeing number 13s everywhere
I think we're out of luck
The empty beds been made
Don't want to lay in it this time
Too filthy from the crumbling walls
Seems like I have to beg for your forgiveness
For even asking for permission at all
I'm only moving on in the ways that matter
(In the literal sense of the word)
The empty beds been made
Don't want to lay in it this time
Too filthy from the crumbling walls
Seems like I have to beg for your forgiveness
For even asking for permission at all
I'm only moving on in the ways that matter
There's a burden on our shoulders
That's more than I can shrug
I think she'll love you better
I'm tired of feeling stuck
I think that I still love you
But I really don't like you that much
I'm seeing number 13s everywhere
I think we're out of luck

You'll never make ends meet
to the highest regard
value me
I wanna get behind your retinas and perceive
disarm your hippocampus
the ichors left to seep
setting in on the mirror blocking my reflection to see
I wasted my whole youth on interests that mutilated me
just be patient cuz I know I sure have
all I see is red
your shadow is always watching
mocking me, punishing me
for affairs left in the past
I know you don't mean any harm
but I can't function under your regard
but my will is stronger
what I know now will lead me through doubt please lead me through doubt
ill never back down I cannot tap out ill never stop now
gotta reclaim gotta restart
gotta put back what fell apart
