Lyrics
In recent memories, it was you I conquered
In recent memories, I achieved victory over you.
It took the best of me, still I held my honor
Despite facing challenges, I maintained my integrity.
Waves of clarity
Experiencing moments of clarity.
Clashing endlessly
Encountering continuous conflicts or struggles.
Just as the sun sets
Similar to the sunset, an end is approaching.
I'll eventually
In time, I will improve.
Breathe better, sleep better, I
Expressing a desire for improved well-being and rest.
Know that to get there I need better options
Acknowledging the need for better choices to achieve goals.
The smoke in the air fills the room as you walk in
Visualizing the presence of smoke as you enter.
And I'm lost in your gaze
Feeling captivated by your gaze.
Oxygen replaced with toxins in my brain
Oxygen is replaced by harmful substances in my mind.
My problems get erased with every breath I take in
Finding temporary relief as I inhale.
I'm noddin' off with sunken eyes, with hopes that I
Becoming drowsy, hoping to escape reality.
Am not another brick in the wall
Rejecting conformity and the risk of being just another part of society.
And I'm through with wastin' time
Deciding not to waste any more time.
I'm runnin' away from this habit of mine
Choosing to escape from a destructive habit.
If I could walk away, I'd be more than honored
If I could, I would willingly distance myself.
But you've latched yourself to me
You have become attached to me.
I can no longer tolerate this
Expressing an inability to endure this situation any longer.
It's my creation
Acknowledging that the situation is a result of personal choices.
With every hit I take I'm getting more complacent
Feeling increasingly at ease with each indulgence.
Can't convince myself to live in moderation
Struggling to embrace moderation in life.
Can't convince myself to have a little more patience
Difficulty in practicing patience.
And I know it takes more than I've given
Recognizing the need for more effort than currently given.
A rearrangement of my mission
Acknowledging the necessity of restructuring personal goals.
To free my mind of this condition
Desiring to overcome a mental state or condition.
And trade this vice away
Willing to exchange the harmful habit for something better.
As I reach into my deepest caverns
Delving into the deepest aspects of oneself.
I seek the root that taints my patterns
Searching for the root cause influencing behavior.
A fragile thing that leaves a bandage
Identifying a fragile element providing temporary relief.
And leaves a mess in me
Recognizing the impact and mess left behind.
Oxygen replaced with toxins in my brain
Oxygen is replaced by harmful substances in my mind (repeated).
My problems get erased with every breath I take in
Temporary escape through breath (repeated).
I'm noddin' off with sunken eyes, with hopes that I
Becoming drowsy, hoping to escape reality (repeated).
Am not another brick in the wall
Rejecting conformity and the risk of being just another part of society (repeated).
And I'm through with wastin' time
Deciding not to waste any more time (repeated).
I'm runnin' away from this habit of mine
Choosing to escape from a destructive habit (repeated).
I'm noddin' off with sunken eyes, with hopes that I
Becoming drowsy, hoping to escape reality (repeated).
Am not another brick in the wall
Rejecting conformity and the risk of being just another part of society (repeated).
And I'm through with wastin' time
Deciding not to waste any more time (repeated).
I'm runnin' away from this habit of mine
Choosing to escape from a destructive habit (repeated).
