Don’t Waste It

[Verse 1]
Was on top of the world when
We got stuck in this version
Imagination blurred your vision
Born, raised and failed to be a perfect person
And nothing's worse than
Feelin' worthless, or without purpose, and always nervous
But you know, deep down, that you don't deserve this
And no, it wasn't worth it

Caught up in personality flaws
What does the fact of reality cause
When the pact that you had gets broken your choking
Caught holding to a lie that you bought
All I heard was a knock on the day that you dropped
Thoughts come non-stop
Hope I heard the words wrong
What an awkward topic
Drop it to be honest, I promise
I don't think you'll get what I'm on

Was about to walk
When I wondered why
We could never just talk
Drew a heavy sigh
Back before this loss
Tried to do it right
Now its high-time for one of us to say goodbye
Yeah, you never stopped
Thinking all the time
Locked yourself up in a box
Stands to reason you might
End the line right here if you like
'Cause I'm right, inside
You're still not alive

[Chorus]
And I don't know why
But this just seems to happen
Every time
I try turn the situation around
And I tell a lie
And act like everything is alright
You said I'd be fine
But that was back when you were around
And I don't know why
But this just seems to happen
You said I'd be fine
But that was back when you were around

[Verse 2]
"One day"
I swore on your grave
I'd be a better person
But I still behave
Just like an animal
Locked in a cage
Now I pray that a change will come
So I stay
And I talk like I know what I'm saying
Believe all the lies, stuck in place, nervous pacing
Why do I wait for this voice in my head
Knowing deep down, what you did?
Then again
This seemed to be so promising
Promises never kept so apologies
An apostrophe cause I'm to blame
You cut me out when we were still ok

[Pre-Chorus]
I could tell but too late, now you're already fading
Gave up on yourself in this place you created
Knew you needed help, an escape, but I caved in
Now that you have what you want don't waste it

[Chorus]
And I don't know why
But this just seems to happen
Every time
I try turn the situation around
And I tell a lie
And act like everything is alright
You said I'd be fine
So pick me up when I'm on the ground
And I don't know why
But this just seems to happen
You said I'd be fine
But that was back when you were around

[Bridge 1]
Where’s my equilibrium
The balance that I’m missin' in my method
I need some composure I guess
Let me compose myself a sec-
So where’s my equilibrium
The balance that I’m missin' in my method
I need some composure I guess
Let me compose myself a second
Was on the tip of my tongue
But now it’s missin'

[Verse 3]
I’m am so sick of this
Sick of it
Take it away from me questioning all of this
Is this a dream or reality
Waking me up, stepping out of me
I'm on a balcony
Looking down
Seems so much higher than when I was on the ground
If I lets go of this now
It's my only way out
I just need peace let me lay down

[Bridge 2]
Am I on the right path
Am I in too deep
I often forget what it's like to be normal
I'm beginning to think

This decision l'm making I hope it's the right one
Please pay attention
The signs of depression
Are all slowly showing I'm filled with regret and aggression
Try letting go of life that's a life lesson

[Pre-Chorus]
And I don't know why, ohh
Every time, yeah
I tell a lie
That was back when you were around

[Chorus]
And I don't know why
But this just seems to happen
Every time
I try turn the situation around
And I tell a lie
And act like everything is alright
You said I'd be fine
But I'm fading out
And I don't know why
But I'm fading out
But this just seems to happen
You said I'd be fine
But that was back when you were around
But I'm fading out
But that was back when you were around
But I'm fading out, out, out...
