Recent months my minds taken a tumble

Been acting selfish instead of humble

I let too many people burst my bubble

Do my best to stay out of trouble

Picking up the pieces left from the rubble

Amassed by the amount of trouble I managed to stay out of

Heart broken because the ones I used to love

Wouldn't think twice about throwing away

What we once had like shoulder shrugs


You might think I'm self aware

Often times I fake confidence

Because of you I have no problem breaking promises

When I know I was always the last option

When did this shared love turn so rotten

I don't love myself but you keep loving me

I am not the man that I want to be

I keep getting hurt and I'm speaking honestly

I'll limp my way through life, it's my odyssey

I know I'll never be yours or live comfortably

The more I think, it's just more I'm harboring

I tried being me that was tough enough to face

I could use a vacation, I could used a year in space
