Tell myself
I don't know how to tell myself
So how can I tell you?
I hoped one day that I might feel peace
Knowing I tried my best but fuck it
I hit the dust, goddamn, just say it
Persistence used to be a medal I wore
Now I see it as the reason I'm sore
Maybe this time I'll embrace some doubt
Just because I usually endure
I'm no good and if I ever had a shot, well, I'm sure I blew it
Some might say
Look at what you've done but all I see is what I haven't
No one understands what it's like
No one except the other heartbroken addicts
I bleed and others feel alive
They use me up and pass on by
I don't know how to tell myself
So how can I tell you?
I gave my all about a hundred times
And still I'm stuck here now where I started
I learned hard work equals no promise
Persistence used to be a medal I wore
Now I see it as the reason I'm sore
Maybe this time I'll embrace some doubt
Just because I usually endure
I'm no good and if I ever had a shot, well, I'm sure I blew it
Some might say
Look at what you've done but all I see is what I haven't
And no one understands what it's like
No one except the other heartbroken addicts
I bleed and others feel alive
They use me up and pass on by
I don't know how to tell myself
So how can I tell you?
So how can I tell you?
I hoped one day that I might feel peace
Knowing I tried my best but fuck it
I hit the dust, goddamn, just say it
Persistence used to be a medal I wore
Now I see it as the reason I'm sore
Maybe this time I'll embrace some doubt
Just because I usually endure
I'm no good and if I ever had a shot, well, I'm sure I blew it
Some might say
Look at what you've done but all I see is what I haven't
No one understands what it's like
No one except the other heartbroken addicts
I bleed and others feel alive
They use me up and pass on by
I don't know how to tell myself
So how can I tell you?
I gave my all about a hundred times
And still I'm stuck here now where I started
I learned hard work equals no promise
Persistence used to be a medal I wore
Now I see it as the reason I'm sore
Maybe this time I'll embrace some doubt
Just because I usually endure
I'm no good and if I ever had a shot, well, I'm sure I blew it
Some might say
Look at what you've done but all I see is what I haven't
And no one understands what it's like
No one except the other heartbroken addicts
I bleed and others feel alive
They use me up and pass on by
I don't know how to tell myself
So how can I tell you?
