Chokehold

These late nights, are all that i know now
these early mornings are beginning to show
and all i think about as i lay awake at night
is will anyone notice the bags under my eyes
i'm losing grip on the choke hold that i had around the neck of my life
and all these demons follow me, into the night
there's a part of me beginning to grow
and it's the one part of me i don't want anyone to know
i'm starting to slip, i feel the skin crack around my fingertips
and I've forgotten, how it feels, to feel like myself
and i don't recognize the face that stares back at me
when i look into the mirror i don't see myself anymore
i don't recognize the man behind these tired eyes
These late nights, are all that i know now
these early mornings are beginning to show
and all i think about as i lay awake at night
is who the fuck am i, who the fuck am i ?
i haven't known myself for far to long
so how could you ?
at least you've got the luxury of running away
believe me if i could, i wouldn't stay
i wouldn't stay around me

Days Like This

It's the sky, that gets to me on days like this
it shines so bright, the opposite of what's going on in my mind
I've gotta block the sun out
i still want to feel cold, I've got to find a way
to take control
i thought i had life figured out
i thought i had a plan
that everything would fall into place for me again
but there's a brightness overcoming
and it's clearing out my head
there are times when my mind catches up to my eyes
and the only thing i see it's whats in front of me
the sun's never been good for my mind
i hate this clarity
i hate this clarity
i thought i had life figured out
thought i had a plan
but nothings going right for me
