lyrics

Bright Lights

The silence doesn't kill me like it used to,
One day I won't need a saviour to put me on solid ground,
I won't need you,
I'll pull my self up with all the strength I have,
I just hope the rope I used to save my self doesn't start looking like a noose,
Like a friend,
Because the demon inside was once all that I am,
He was out for blood,
He was out for blood,
My whole life is just one big metaphor,
I'm so sick of the constant fear that I'll get bad again,
That I'll wake up face down on the floor,
One drink closer to the end,
But now I wake up every morning completely content with my life,
I can't handle losing that stability,
I can't lose my light

It's hard to hide your past,
When it's written all over your body,
Bone crushing pain,
Symptoms of a god damn lobotomy,
Every thing was wrong,
Every thing was lost,
I was left praying to a god I had stopped believing in,
"Dear God let me rot,
Put me six feet under the soil,
Bury the pain,
Bring my blood to boil,
Don't let me wake up breathing again,
I've had enough of life,
Amen"

When he failed at that,
I fell of the deep end,
I lost me bearing,
Started to sink back into depression,
Fuck the places my mind has taken me,
What's mine is mine,
And I took back my mind,
The devil on my shoulder can't convince me otherwise,
I hate the person I was,
And the place I resided in,
My life isn't over,
It's there for the taking

I just fear the fall,
If I trip again,
There will be no more miracles,
Don't stumble kid
