As It Is - Can’t Save Myself lyrics

rate me

I can't help the way my mind is hardwired to hate myself

Cause I swear that this is hell

The way I desperately try to save myself

Cause I can't save myself

A single breath in empty lungs

That's all I got left gasping for air

And a bad idea branded in my brain

I can't seem to shake

Another day in tired skin

I shed and fray far from desire

'Til all I am is textbook misery and my own mistakes

My own mistakes

And as I've aged

The only thing I think has changed

Is that the demons have moved from under my bed

Into the inner depths of my head

I can't escape the ugly things my mind creates

I speculate that they'll stay with my 'til the grave

I can't help the way my mind is hardwired to hate myself

'Cause I swear that this is hell

The way I desperately try to save myself

'Cause I can't save myself

Can't save myself

In broken bones a half-hearted smile

I feel at home

I'm proud of nothing

I tend to get attached so quick to all I've ever known

All I've ever known

But I don't seem to know a single fucking thing that can save me

I'm my own worst enemy

Is there any hope for me?

(Chorus)

I'm the boy who chose not to grow up

And now I'm unprepared for anything

Now I'm scared and I'm cold and alone

Because the world grew up without me

I'm the boy who chose not to grow up

And now I'm unprepared for anything

Now I'm scared and I'm cold and alone

Because the world grew up without me

I'm the boy who chose not to grow up

And now I'm unprepared for anything

Is there any hope for me?

Now I'm scared and I'm cold and alone because the world grew up without me

Is there any hope for me?

(Chorus)
