It's Not Just My Life

I've been keeping secrets from myself
Drowning all my sorrows out
I was dreaming every single night
Sometimes the nightmares became too real
As time went by my soul lost strength
And at my expense I lost defense
My gift, my curse, charismatic addiction
My best, my worst, my all tried to fix it

But you know I was lying when I said
That I don't need help
I should've known I was dying when
The music wouldn't leave my mouth
And it kept me warm
'Cus I didn't want to deal with the cold outside
But I was just so numb
And I didn't want to take the time to realize
It's not just my life
Yeah, not my life

The depression seemed incurable
And so I dug this hole, hid from my world
My soul couldn't take the pain
So I sold it to be numb again
Tried to replace the human race
I wish I could take it back
I've made mistakes, caused so much pain
For the people in my life

Oh you know I was lying when I said
That I don't need help
I should've known I was dying when
The music wouldn't leave my mouth
And it kept me warm
'Cus I didn't want to deal with the cold outside
But I was just so numb
And I didn't want to take the time to realize
It's not just my life
Yeah, not my life
