lyrics

Another city, another room, another night on my own.
I do my best to clear my mind, but I’m lost in my thoughts.
I keep trying to find a way to say this, but I can’t put it into words.

I’m suffocating beneath this feeling.
My chest is crushed by the weight of my insecurity and my uncertainty.
After all this time, my mind should be free.

I try to fill the void with things that mean nothing.
I'll numb the pain with anything that will distract me.

I've become a threat to my own sanity.
So, even in the mirror, I wear a disguise.
I’m trying to use the power of will to mend my broken mind.

I know the love is in the lies.
The lies we tell ourselves to soothe our broken minds.
I know the love is in the lies.
The lies we tell ourselves to soothe our broken minds.
I know.
I know.

This disease is my companion, quietly waiting to drag me back down.
It takes my hand and pulls me deeper, I sink into the void and I begin to drown.

Sometimes I think that the recovery hurts more than the fall. (more than the fall)
Sometimes I still think I’d be better off if I wasn’t here at all. (if I wasn't here at all)

It shouldn’t be this hard to find stable ground.
I really shouldn't be alone right now.
It shouldn’t be this hard to find stable ground.
I really shouldn't be alone right now.

I know the love is in the lies.
The lies we tell ourselves to soothe our broken minds.
I know the love is in the lies.
I know.
