Burdened with the task of keeping track of the days
Counting the minutes on the clock as they fade away
I never thought I would even make it to see today
But I'm here and the life I lead is caving in on me
Dragging me through the streets
Bringing me to my knees
But as the world spins around me
Another day comes and goes and I'm still waiting
I didn't choose to be in this world
My self-destructive acts will always go unheard
And this veil that I hide behind
Gives me a better way to see what this world is like
I watched you change
You watched me do the same
And I saw your change
But I'll never let my hate do the same
I never dreamed my life would end up this way
Searching for any meaning in this f**ked up place
Everyone here once spoke in a similar way
Singing the same songs that we all once sang
The same songs
You knew my face you never knew me
You saw your demons when you looked right at me
You knew my face you never knew me
You never knew me at all
Here we are
With shattered hearts staring back at me
No room left to breath
The world caves in on me all that's left to see
A man so lost and confused
A man so beaten black and blue
A man staring back at you
A man just like you
