My Tragedy, My Curse

I won't hide from the way I am
I'm not a saint or a sacrificial lamb
Give me everything, I'll give you nothing
All I'll leave behind is all that I am

From fear, won't step aside from fear
(I won't apologize)

I feel alive when I
When I get triggered by your killing words
And broken pieces of you
I come alive when I
Bring out my best when I'm worst
It's my tragedy, my curse

All I'm taking with me's what I've become
Friend or enemy, I will never give in
I will never back down, I won't feel ashamed
I don't compromise, no regrets have a prize

From fear, I won't step aside from fear
(I won't apologize)

I feel alive when I
When I get triggered by your killing words
And broken pieces of you
I come alive when I
Bring out my best when I'm worst
It's my tragedy, my curse

I know I'll hurt you in the end but I know I can't help it
I will bury you along with your dishonesty
All you feed me is your killing words, but I will break them
I will never learn I'm always best when I'm worst

I feel alive when I
When I get triggered by your killing words
And broken pieces of you
I come alive when I
Bring out my best when I'm worst
It's my tragedy, my curse

Your killing words won't break me
I'll go beyond where it hurts
It's my tragedy, my curse
Your killing words won't break me
I'm at my best when I'm worst
It's my tragedy, my curse
