A long day of forced, faked smiles
But you can't see behind a computer screen...
Just my bitter words.
Words I've now said
Which could lay us to rest
Because I can't say I'm feeling insecure,
Just in a bad place.
Breaking down on either end.
Distance holding us back from those three words
Which I've never said to anyone but you.
Now what do I regret?
Why does this always get the better of me?
Tear me down till I lose everything I've ever held close
Because "you're a worthless failure" haunts me,
Tortures me till I stop in my tracks...
Numb... because I can't say I'm really not okay!

Why does this always get the better of me?
Tear me down till I lose everything I've ever held close
Because "you're a worthless failure" haunts me,
Tortures me till I stop in my tracks...
Numb... because I can't say I'm really not okay!
