Lies, again today
Lies, to everyone I love
Smiles, everything is okay
I just need time to think
But my eyes say everything.
I can't breathe, I'm drowning
In this sea, of broken dreams
No ones there, to help me
Bring me back, to life
I can't breathe, I'm dying
Help, I have done it again
I, hurt, myself again today
Took, the pain out on myself
Hurt, to make the pain go away
Now, I sit here in shame
But the worst part is
That there is no one else to blame.
I can't breathe, I'm drowning
In this sea, of broken dreams
No ones there, to help me
Bring me back, to life
I can't breathe, I'm dying
Ouch, I have done it again
Hurt, myself again today
Hurt, to feel something, anything
Hurt, to make the pain go away
To feel a slight release, yes
To feel, the tension build in my chest
To be alive for just a few minutes
But then, the shame takes control
And I'm back in this hole
I can't breathe, I'm drowning
In this sea, of broken dreams
No ones there, to help me
Bring me back, to life
I can't breathe, I'm dying
Blood, runs down my arm
Around and over my scars
Hate for them forms a loving bond
A bond that no one can break
Now I, hide myself again
Hide the truth and who I really am
I, self destructive...
But, I, don't mean to hurt you
The one I care about most.

Lies, again today
Lies, to everyone I love
Smiles, everything is okay
I just need time to think
But my eyes say everything.
I can't breathe, I'm drowning
In this sea, of broken dreams
No ones there, to help me
Bring me back, to life
I can't breathe, I'm dying
Help, I have done it again
I, hurt, myself again today
Took, the pain out on myself
Hurt, to make the pain go away
Now, I sit here in shame
But the worst part is
That there is no one else to blame.
I can't breathe, I'm drowning
In this sea, of broken dreams
No ones there, to help me
Bring me back, to life
I can't breathe, I'm dying
Ouch, I have done it again
Hurt, myself again today
Hurt, to feel something, anything
Hurt, to make the pain go away
To feel a slight release, yes
To feel, the tension build in my chest
To be alive for just a few minutes
But then, the shame takes control
And I'm back in this hole
I can't breathe, I'm drowning
In this sea, of broken dreams
No ones there, to help me
Bring me back, to life
I can't breathe, I'm dying
Blood, runs down my arm
Around and over my scars
Hate for them forms a loving bond
A bond that no one can break
Now I, hide myself again
Hide the truth and who I really am
I, self destructive...
But, I, don't mean to hurt you
The one I care about most.
