My pain is real and never ending it seems.
I've been drowning in my own malcontent. 364 days behind me and today I'm calling it quits.
No you won't miss me.

I'm coming to terms. I'll get what I deserve. I can't handle myself when I act like this. Every single mistake and every memory is clouding my judgement.
This is something that I can't take away.
There is a void I can't fill.
I thought I had your heart but now I'm filled with guilt.
I'm not who I should be.
Step up and leave.
But I'm so sorry that i can't be the man you need.

Your leaning on me but I'm crumbling.
Your counting on me but I'm still stumbling.
I can't be your anchor.
There's no wind left in my sails.
I won't make it too far.
I'm no longer your guiding star.
I'm busy trying to be a ship able to bring you to sea.
But I'll never be worthy.
I just can't be the man you need.
