Castle of Cards

This is the last I beat myself over this when all I wanted was approval
But I always missed deadlines
And late nights and down time and day light
Yeah it's the last I beat myself up over this
Never again will I beat myself up over this
These dirty streets are all that I know
I'm getting tired of walking all alone
It's freezing cold, it's getting old
So ill take my final steps (and I'm not settling)
I guess that my leavings for the best (I'm sick of everything)
The days are all the same here and I can feel it in my empty chest
I can't afford to waste my time on these
People that I can not coexist with
Lets blame this on each other like we never fail to do
And you can tell from my voice that I'm off balance
We were like a castle of cards with our stability
And all the thoughts in my mind kill the consistency
Another night in this town will be the death of me
It broke me, I'm so weak that I can't see the road in front of me
I'm always missing deadlines, late nights, down time and day light
But I'll miss the place that nobody had anything good to say about
I'll miss the way that everything could find a way to break me down
The only way to save myself is to prove that
I was never a slave like the rest
