​​it is what it is

[Verse 1]
Why do I keep fallin’ for the same old little tricks?
So manipulated by you, I guess it is what it is
I'm still stuck on you, goddamn it, right now I feel kinda sick
I wish that I could move on but our history still exists
Take it step by step one day at a time
I sure hope things get better with time
I don't know if I'm dead or alive
If I seem okay, I'm pretendin’ I'm fine
Why'd you take advantage of me, now my heart is damaged
I don't understand the benefit of puttin’ me through hell
Killin’ me romantically, I’m livin’ in a fantasy
I'm hangin’ on the memories, I'm still under a spell
Tell me why I'm waitin’ for somebody, God I hate it
Cuz I know that she don't give a fuck about us anymore
Daily I get faded to forget about the pain
That is apparent to the public but is pretty much ignored
Hurt motherfucker with a broken heart
Please take me back, just press restart
Please take me back, don't let me start
Shit, I'll feel better when my lighter sparks, so light it up
And I gave you all my trust but it wasn't enough
I should've never fell in love, what the hell have I become?
Just a man that has it rough
Everythin’ that I discuss isn't easy, this is tough
Yeah, everyday I’m high but my eyes low
I don't wanna feel like I'm walkin’ on a tightrope
Memories of us follow me wherever I go
I don't wanna keep on waitin’ but I might so

[Verse 2]
Betrayed, I got knives on my back
Somehow I survived but my heart's turnin’ black
Turn down by the ones that I tried to attract
Damn it, I don't understand what it is that I lack
All bullshit aside, I'm hurtin’ inside
Look around at the town, it's perfect tonight
So quiet, so dark, not a sound, not a light
All I wanna do is numb this suffering of mine
Yeah, I’m so crushed but I don't wanna face it
I thought we would last through infinite generations
Nobody is special, we're just numbers in a matrix
Now I'm just a fraction cuz half of me’s gotten vanquished
It isn't complicated, I'll break it down to the basics
I need to find peace but I'm runnin’ out of patience
I'm tempted just to end it, the Devil is so persuasive
But maybe if I wait, I'll find a way to embrace this life
