This is not an excuse, this is a demand for change!
Weeks become days, become more than you can take.
Everything begins to feel so distant, abuse of substance.
But you are right if you say that the pain won't be constant.
Sleepwalking, shallow breath, bloodred eyes by night.
Sleepwalking, shallow breath, bloodred eyes by day and night.
So many wasted dreams for a try to escape,
So many wasted dreams for this senseless denial.
You said that you already hate what you see in the mirror,
but it's not the mirror that changed you, the world is the reflection of our actions.
You caused what you try to alleviate, we have to live with the mistakes we make.
But in want to lift the weight of the world, you only made it harder for yourself.
It's a denial to say this isn't the way to anything worse.
And so this is the last time I'm wasting my breath on you.
Weeks become days, become more than you can take.
Everything begins to feel so distant, abuse of substance.
But you are right if you say that the pain won't be constant.
Right! It will go to return stronger again, stronger again.
The first time is never the last time,
but the world doesn't disappear if you close your eyes.
No love lost, no love found.
