You Can't Come Home the Same

I don't want to you to remember

My face or name

I just want to scream alone and know

You all felt the same

But paint your own picture

And say what you will

It never matters what I say

It never matters how I feel

I hope you're not like me

Desperate to leave

Like when I smashed a mirror

To watch myself break and disappear

Whether concrete or sheets

Just lay me to sleep

Whether a bed or grave

Let me live where I lay

Whether concrete or sheets

Just lay me to sleep

Whether a bed or grave

Let me live where I lay

We fall

As we slowly lose touch with the world

Breathe in

We fall

As we slowly lose faith in ourselves

Breathe deeper

And point the gun back at yourselves

The blame will be washed away

Force fed hopefulness again

It never got better

Point the gun back at yourselves

The blame will be washed away

Force fed hopefulness again

It never got better

Whether concrete or sheets

Just lay me to sleep

Whether a bed or grave

Let me live where I lay

Whether concrete or sheets

Just lay me to sleep

Whether a bed or grave

Let me live where I lay

No one will know how hard

I tried to make it easy

For those around me

I kept it to myself

Or maybe no one cared to listen

Now you can watch me tear myself apart

Right before your eyes

Dedicated self-deprecation

All has left me but life itself

Dedicated self-deprecation

All has left me but life itself
