lyrics

today was the first day that I came around to this side of my head
thinking up stories and making up names
and wishing the years held more
than just simple games

today was the first day that I gave everyone words they've never said
the same situations with newer faces
but the same things
come back and scare me

so maybe I can't breathe
but maybe it's just me

and these thoughts that I have
they keep coming back
I won't let them get to me
no matter how much goes wrong
I promise I will stay strong
if not for you, I'll do it for me

yesterday I found myself throwing aside the real me for you
and now every day that picture is painted
but that's not who I am
and I'm sorry if that's the impression I made on you
but I swear to god it's true
I'm the same person I was two years ago

and these thoughts that I have
they keep coming back
I won't let them get to me
no matter how much goes wrong
I promise I will stay strong
if not for you, I'll do it for me

and I haven't changed one bit
I'm standing here now
this is it
you've taken what I used to be and created a monster
it's killing me
they're killing me

and these thoughts that I have
they keep coming back
I won't let them get to me
(get to me)
no matter how much goes wrong
I promise I will stay strong
if not for you, I'll do it for me

if not for you, I'll do it for me
