I've been wearing down the soles of my shoes just trying to find out what it feels like, to finally feel alright with where I am and who I've been
This tread has worn thin, but it still grips the ground beneath these bones
Cut down, your words came with a knockout
As if I'd actually care if they came from someone else, but all I hear now is the doubt ringing out in your voice
I've been wearing down the soles of my shoes just trying to find out what it feels like, to finally be alright with where I am and who I've been
This tread has worn thin, but it still grips the ground beneath these bones
shit.
If happiness is being miserable, then I want out.
I'll find my own way home from these empty streets and turn the lights out
I refuse to admit that I have to fit into your cutout standards
Your endless banter; It's all just shit.
I've been wearing down the soles of my shoes just trying to find out what it feels like, to finally feel alright with where I am and who I've been
This tread has worn thin, but it still grips the ground beneath my bones
I'd rather break bones than let this go.
Think we're fuckin' up? Well at least I'm where I want to be
Letting out my sanity through simple melodies
Staring at the walls like they're all that we'll ever see
With shaking hands we're writing songs to chase away the apathy
This is where my passion lies.
Think we're fuckin' up? Well, at least I'm where I want to be
Screaming out my lungs drunkenly
Staring at the walls
Letting out my sanity through simple melodies.
