Breaking

I can’t shake this headache

Could you sing me to sleep

So I don’t have to be awake

To taint these memories

If I could swap you places

See the world through your eyes

Maybe I’d understand why

You only feed me lies

Everybody’s got their target

Line me up for the kill

If you don’t take me out

Then my paranoia will

Put the barrel to my head

Give your finally word goodbye

This is the happy ending

You don’t get to see me cry

And someday maybe

When the scars have finished fading

I can finally get it through to you

That I’m not worth saving

And someday maybe

When the melody stops playing

I can let the pieces fall because

I’m tired of pretending I’m not
