Why does it seem the songs about hating myself |
|
Are the ones the kids look up to |
|
Well you're in luck because I'm in hell |
|
'Cause It's not art if it's not dark and shows the ugly truth |
|
I write all of these songs for me, |
|
But the contract I signed sees things differently |
|
But what if I'm not strong enough to be |
|
The broken bastard that I am |
|
And the hero that they need |
|
Do you believe we all have demons? |
|
Do you believe we all have secrets? |
|
Time can feel like flame |
|
But even stars burn out someday |
|
So do you see the stars? |
|
They shine for no one |
|
[x2] |
|
Between the years of hiding my darkness underneath |
|
And the quest for finding my identity |
|
I can't sleep |
|
Without the bottle to drown my anxiety |
|
I can't sleep |
|
And this insomni-addiction is killing me |
|
Don't look up to me |
|
'Cause I can only look down on myself |
|
And so would you, if only you ever really knew the real me |
|
I tried to keep my burdens at bay, but a bend's about to break |
|
Because my mouth's grown tired of the all the lies and smiles it fakes |
|
But what if I'm not strong enough to be |
|
The damaged desolate I am, and the hero that they need |
|
Do you believe we all have demons? |
|
Do you believe we all have secrets? |
|
Time can feel like flame |
|
But even stars burn out someday |
|
So do you see the stars? |
|
There's a hole at the bottom only I can see |
|
Where my heart once was where it used to be |
|
And now the choir sings |
|
There's a hole at the bottom, time gave to me |
|
Where a darkness grows and the light's fading |
|
And now the choir sings, "Come home to the fire" |
|
Come home to the fire (Beg and Burn) |
|
[x4] |
|
Do you believe we all have demons? |
|
Do you believe we all have secrets? |
|
Time can feel like flame |
|
But even stars burn out someday |
|
So do you see the stars? |
|
They shine for no one |
