lyrics

This glass of water overflows
But I’m still burning from the fire
So many times I moved away
Though I can’t help if getting tired

I tried to save me numb the pain
These drugs will never work anyway
Disorientated from words they say
And I hate the things I crave

These better days that never came
Will always be the ones I dare to dream
And when the curtains call the time
Will I go home alive
These better days
That never came

Nobody left for me to call
And I don’t even feel desire
Overprocessed left alone
I’ll let it tear me down and look away

You’ll take a piece of me
I won’t say a thing
Then it will rot you can’t take joy from grief
And when you’re done you’ll say it’s mine
Just to show the ugly side of me

These better days that never came
Will always be the ones I dare to dream
And when the curtains call the time
Will I go home alive
These better days
That never came

And the hardest part of just wanting to breath
Is that I spiral downward endlessly
I will try to escape but you’ll capture me
As I’m not enough for me
And as much as I want to forgive you for that
You always seem to be coming back
With the same old mistakes and the things that I hate
When you told me things will change
