Lyrics

Creeping up again

Feeling a resurgence of emotions or issues

Lost myself and it's too late

Realizing I've lost my true self and it's irreversible

Killing time again

Wasting time again

Waiting for my only fate

Waiting for the only outcome I foresee


Trapped within the cage

Feeling confined within a self-made situation

That I've built with my own hands

Constructed my own limitations

Can't release the rage

Unable to let go of anger or frustration

Shattered life and broken plans

Feeling broken and plans shattered


If I knew myself

Reflecting on not understanding myself

I wouldn't keep on doing this

Continuing negative behaviors despite self-awareness

But I trick myself

Deceiving myself with false beliefs

And believe with just one kiss

Believing a single action or gesture will solve issues


I can't believe the things I do

Surprised or dismayed by my actions

All for the sake of pleasing you

Doing things solely to please someone else


In the dark again

Feeling lost or trapped in darkness

Afraid to move but can't sit still

Unable to relax or stay still due to fear

Killed my heart again

Harming my emotions again

To myself I give this pill

Choosing self-destructive actions


If I was myself

If I were true to myself

I'd find strength to push away

Would have the strength to break free

But I hurt myself

Harming myself instead of finding strength

And I weaken more each day

Weakening myself gradually


I can't believe the things I do

Shocked by my actions to please someone else

All for the sake of pleasing you

Continuing actions solely for another's happiness


As I come to know you

Discovering more about someone

My disgust grows a new

Increasing revulsion or repulsion towards them

As you tighten your grip

Feeling suffocated or controlled by someone

My worn throat is slowly slit

Experiencing pain or harm due to their actions


I can't believe the things I do

Continuing actions to please despite awareness

All for the sake of pleasing you

Repeatedly sacrificing my own well-being for another

I should just stop and let you know

Considering the need to stop and communicate this

But I'm afraid of letting go, letting go

Fearing the act of releasing the situation
