[Verse 1]
From the scrapes and bruises
To the familiar abuses
I'll kick and scream
But it never changes anything
[Verse 2]
I could spill my guts out
Wearing my best little girl pout
And I almost missed it
But nobody said that this was gonna be easy
[Chorus]
This is not the man I hoped to be
And I'm just trying to stop the bleeding
I don't know how to word it
I just started to deserve it
And all my
All my faces are alibis
And me
I'm half the man I wanted to be
[Verse 3]
Most times it all comes out wrong
I don't know the words but I'll hum along
There's nothing familiar here anymore
To anyone or anything enough to feel alive
[Verse 4]
And I still taste that sickness
And it makes me crazy without it at best
But I'm in the same place I used to be
But I'm trying harder not to be
[Chorus]
This is not the man I hoped to be
And I'm just trying to stop the bleeding
I don't know how to word it
I just started to deserve it
And all my
All my faces are alibis
And me
I'm half the man I wanted to be
[Bridge]
So what am I?
What am I?
So what am I?
[Chorus]
And all my
All my faces are alibis
This is not the man I hoped to be
And I'm just trying to stop the bleeding
I don't know how the words go
I just started not to say no
[Post-Chorus]
Don't want it, don't get it (All my)
I know you won't regret it
Don't surface, don't surface (All my)
And I feel so damned worthless (All my faces are)
Another day is gone (All my)
And all my faces are alibis
All my faces are alibis
And me
I'm half the man I wanted to be
