Echoes

Why can't I shake these feelings of inadequacy?
Is there no way to believe that I've earned everything?
The air I breathe leaves a taste that's so bittersweet
Everyone's gaze is directed at the me I can't see

What if I'm withering away?
I swear I feel the suffocation
And if I fade, what will they think?
I swear I'd hear the raging echoes

Damned if I do, damned if I don't
I need to prove the things that I do

Selfish thoughts that guide my shame
Broken glass reflects the pain
What would they miss if I decided to let go?
Selfish thoughts keep me awake
Broken hearts that I can't see
What would they list when they finally see all my flaws?
Fraud

Inadequate, so deceptive
Imposter, imposter

Why can I prove there's nothing left to lose?

Selfish thoughts that guide my shame
Broken glass reflects the pain
What would they miss if I decided to let go?
Selfish thoughts keep me awake
Broken hearts that I can't see
What would they list when they finally see all my flaws?

What would they miss if I decided to let go?
What would they list when they see all my flaws?

Why can't I shake all these feelings of self formed inadequacy?
Is there no way to believe that I've earned everything?

What's left to lose?

Selfish thoughts that guide my shame
Broken glass reflects the pain
What would they miss if I decided to let go?
Selfish thoughts keep me awake
Broken hearts that I can't see
What would they list when they finally see all my flaws?

I'll always hear the raging echoes
