Comeback Season
Broken jaw
Limp wrists
Why am I pretending to be weak?
It's the easy way out
My substances walk themselves in
Now there's no crutch left to lean on
Excuses as empty as my stomach
I think it's time to feast
I've preyed on those who couldn't speak
And learned to run without feet
So why is this temporary challenge
My ultimate defeat
Been playing victim long enough
That ***** can take a seat
I'll pull the chair from underneath
And hope he falls into the deep
No reflection in the mirror
Just what's left, hollow as ever
Anything that might be missing
Is a piece I took
With no plan to replace
Self destruction comes too natural
I don't want to die
But that doesn't mean I want to live
The distiction between the two is action
Comeback season is now in session
