Pride

You're stuck in a bind
Maintaining steady in decline
The art of pride
Erodes progressively

Bear the weight
Demonstrate
The illusion of restraint

Fetishize self-abuse
The effort's gone and the pressure's formed a noose

When will it be enough
The pressure's on you couldn't turn it off
When will it be enough

You couldn't find a way

Because you're stuck in a bind
Deriving comfort when you hide
Draw the blinds
Start sifting through your shame

It wont relent
Your will is spent
You've found sense in violence

To abuse
To confuse
What is meaningful and what tightens your noose

When will it be enough
The pressure's on I couldn't turn it off
When will it be enough

I found a new way to heal
I'll pick the scars 'til I feel
Restrain my spite and exercise control over the growing shame
Your spear in my side
I'm falling on my sword
And though I couldn't find a way I swear I'm coming home

When will it be enough
The pressure's on you couldn't turn it off
When will it be enough
