lyrics

I'm not down for the count just yet
My feet may be dragging
My shoulders may be breaking
I'm trying hard to forget
My life is wavering
My mind is aching

Apologies lose touch over time
I'm trying to help myself through this lie
My unwary life begins to dry
My exhausted mind has no light

To whom do i owe the pleasure
for this constant reminder of what I've done
I've given away everything i thought defined me
I'm sick of hurting everyone

This isn't what i wanted
I can't live this way
I'll prove to myself
that even I can change
Time isn't helping in this stage
I can't keep these thoughts at bay
I need to find something
My personal remedy

Though time is overwhelming
I can't give in to these lies
They speak to me too clearly
But they know that i despise
every ill conceived notion
to bring me farther down
than the last time

Over and over
An inconsistent hope
Made broken
And i've been piecing it back together

I now know that the pleasure is all mine
But i will work for it and take the time
I'll be better just you wait and see
I want hope, I want you
To believe in me

I'm sorry
I don't mean to worry
I'm pushing
to pick up where I left off

I'm still fighting
Told myself i won't give up
I'll keep trying
to be better than i was

If it means
Anything to you
I'm trying
