It’s all about the lessons
We’re never taught to be strong
Because we never think we’ll ever need to be
So we get hurt
and we only ever blame ourselves
But if ever, just know, it’s not your fault you see
Don’t you think that I’ve gone too far
And don’t you think I can’t fall apart.
Now I tell myself, I won’t be the victim I
Grin as I break to pieces
Everyone around me watches as I bleed
Revelations from the parish of me
Our world begins to crumble
Finally we get to drink this
Filthy poison we're forced to swallow
Each and every time this follows
All we need is some sanity, something to
Reveal to me why it’s wrong to be afraid
