Self Regard

You were sold a dream for a price you couldn't pay
Now you struggle each day
To save yourself from the pain
Now the poison runs through your veins
Sick inside
Put on a mask and hide behind your smile

Sit behind your wall and
Listen to my screams
From the other side
Trapped in my room of memories

I look for my escape
The end is not my fate
I refuse
I refuse
To let you choose for me

God damn my demons
They've been with me all along
Convincing me to let go when all I can do is hold on
Now all alone
The darkness consumes me
My silent screams grow louder as I look for them to bring me home

Sit behind your wall and
Listen to my screams
From the other side
Trapped in my room of memories

I look for my escape
The end is not my fate
I refuse
I refuse
To let you choose for me

No one ever told me that life
Would be so hard
So I keep fighting because
There has to be a reason I've been here so long
These scars show where I've been
Not who I am
And they remind me that if I keep living
I don't have to see the end
I don't have to see the end

I look for my escape
The end is not my fate
I refuse
I refuse
To let you choose for me
