New Anthemic

We can't have nice things if we throw them away
You stay broken when you're running in place
Loathe the loneliness that you create
You bend to break, you push away
We can't have nice things if we throw them away
You stay broken when you're running in place
Loathe the perception that you've created
You bend to break until you're broken and jaded
I can't hold you
I can't love you
I can't look you in the eyes
I can't love you anymore
Take something you love and run it into the ground a thousand times
Damaged eyes are unfocused to fit and disguised to project
Let the guilt build
And heed no one's advice
So you can fixate on a new shiny device
Or fill up a garbage can, inanimate life
Grasp at straws stolen from others
Disappear them to ash to give yourself cover
To give yourself cover
We can't have nice things if we throw them away
You stay broken when you're running in place
Loathe the loneliness that you create
You bend to break, you push away
We can't have nice things if we throw them away
You stay broken when you're running in place
Loathe the perception that you've created
You bend to break until you're broken and jaded
I am learning to throw myself away
I'll cover myself with guilt and a few new cuts to bleed through
Live to relive the shame I was meant to
I can't regift my wounds to you
I bend to break until you're broken and jaded
I can't hold you
I can't love you
I can't look you in the eyes
I won't love you anymore
