everything that burns inside

and everywhere i’ve tried to hide

everyone that’s let me down

and all the times i’ve tried to drown

all the fires that burn inside

and every solution but suicide

all the paths that lead to nothing

and every time i’ve ran from something



how i wish i were any place but here

how i wish another day could pass by without me in it

always last in line, but first to go

please promise you’ll stay, though i know you won’t



why would anyone want to look inside these eyes?

i’d rather not see out of them myself

everyone’s always going somewhere,but i’m the one who’s left behind

all these words you’ve said to me mean nothing

i wouldn’t dare to understand anyway.

hopeless in my confusion, my frustration

maybe i’m so destined to fail, in everything, anywhere



i’ve dug myself the deepest hole, so far away from everyone

miles away from any place, time passes so slowly

but it’s better then living in my former hell

better than dying in my living cell

better than just about anything anyone could ever offer me



i’m in this for myself

you’d never want me back anyway

i’m a little less than nothing to you

and anyone who wished they’ve never known me



burn all the bridges that lead to me

nothing to live for but myself

nobody who cares, but myself

there’s nobody out there who needs me anyway



all alone, everyone is so useless to me

and i’m so useless to them

every attempt turns out a failure, i end up right back where i started

all the words i’ve wanted to say to you, but nothing comes out every time

and the world grows colder, with every step i take

you’ve driven in the nails, now witness the decline
