A Twisted World

I'll trace my steps out of the nightmare and separate the skin to find that I'm a ghost
No room for growth in life's complacency
I don't want to be caught in the crosshairs of regret
While I'm burning out like a cigarette with my hopes and dreams

My true colors are fading and I'm so far beyond jaded
Picture perfect lives staining the silver screen

I can't help but feel like it's me against the world
I couldn't find myself on their path so I cut a trail
Finally awake, no longer following
I want to live, not just exist
I'll do my part to find a place where I don't feel like I'm wasting space
And something tells me that'll be nowhere around you

Losing sleep anticipating tragedy
Constant bleak thoughts replay in my head but I keep biding my time until the end

My true colors are fading and I'm so far beyond jaded
Picture perfect lives are just a fantasy

I can't help but feel like it's me against the world
I couldn't find myself on their path so I cut a trail
Finally awake, no longer following
I want to live, not just exist
I'll do my part to find a place where I don't feel like I'm wasting space
And something tells me that'll be nowhere around you

A twisted world won't hold me back

I thought you'd always be there for me
But you turned your back and never gave me a chance
And I know I shouldn't say this because no one really listens
You've thrown me into the background but
I'll find a place where I'm more than just a waste of space
And that's nowhere around you
