Lyrics
I'll trace my steps out of the nightmare and separate the skin to find that I'm a ghost
Feeling lost and detached from reality, trying to understand one's existence
No room for growth in life's complacency
Life feels stagnant without opportunities for personal development
I don't want to be caught in the crosshairs of regret
Avoiding the consequences of past mistakes
While I'm burning out like a cigarette with my hopes and dreams
Struggling while watching aspirations fade away
My true colors are fading and I'm so far beyond jaded
Feeling disillusioned and worn out
Picture perfect lives staining the silver screen
Comparing real lives to idealized versions in media
I can't help but feel like it's me against the world
Sensing an isolation from the rest of the world
I couldn't find myself on their path so I cut a trail
Choosing an unconventional path due to not fitting in with societal norms
Finally awake, no longer following
Breaking away from conformity and becoming self-aware
I want to live, not just exist
Desire for a meaningful life, not just mere existence
I'll do my part to find a place where I don't feel like I'm wasting space
Seeking a purposeful place where one feels valued
And something tells me that'll be nowhere around you
Believing that finding fulfillment won't involve certain individuals
Losing sleep anticipating tragedy
Anxious about impending unfortunate events
Constant bleak thoughts replay in my head but I keep biding my time until the end
Struggling with persistent negative thoughts but persevering
My true colors are fading and I'm so far beyond jaded
Continued disillusionment and weariness
Picture perfect lives are just a fantasy
Rejecting the illusion of perfect lives portrayed in media
I can't help but feel like it's me against the world
Feeling alienated and in conflict with the world
I couldn't find myself on their path so I cut a trail
Choosing an individualistic path due to lack of resonance with societal norms
Finally awake, no longer following
Awakening to personal independence and autonomy
I want to live, not just exist
Aspiring for a fulfilling life, not mere survival
I'll do my part to find a place where I don't feel like I'm wasting space
Actively seeking a place where one feels purposeful
And something tells me that'll be nowhere around you
Belief that fulfillment won't involve certain individuals
A twisted world won't hold me back
Determined not to be held back by the complexities of life
I thought you'd always be there for me
Expectation of support and loyalty from someone significant
But you turned your back and never gave me a chance
Feeling abandoned and ignored by someone trusted
And I know I shouldn't say this because no one really listens
Expressing thoughts despite feeling unheard
You've thrown me into the background but
Being sidelined by someone important
I'll find a place where I'm more than just a waste of space
Determined to find a place where one feels valued
And that's nowhere around you
Belief that fulfillment won't involve certain individuals
