Unraveled

The permeating smell of dead flowers penetrates the seemingly endless fog
And for a moment, ever so briefly, I can catch my breath, but
The air is not pure and I am not cured of this condition I've got
Cunning and baffling - all of this is happening at once

The time it takes to raise the stakes
Can cut your heart just like a blade
And now you unravel
The mind it aches to contemplate and comprehend
The more I mend the more I unravel

And I turned from what I learned to practice what I know
The fire that once burned now is ember's glow
Nothing feels like hope

The memories, they torment me - the past cannot be ran away from
A year has passed and all that I ask is for my heart to stand firm
What once was all, there's nothing left - the love inside of me is gone
I cannot afford to open those doors that you slammed into my face

The time it takes to raise the stakes
Can cut your heart just like a blade
And now you unravel
The mind it aches to contemplate and comprehend
The more I mend the more I unravel

And I turned from what I learned to practice what I know
The fire that once burned now is ember's glow
Nothing feels like hope

And if I was meant to feel this way
Well, I'd never want to be meant at all
And if I was born to be this way
I never asked to be born at all
And now you unravel

I'll make this quick
I feel like a failure
I feel like a prick
I will make you know
Who I am
Somehow
