I settled down
A twisted up frown
Disguised as a smile well
You would have never known
You would have never known
I have it all
But not when I wanted
'Cause over me was a
place uncharted
And overgrown

Intro
-------- x2
Verse 1
I scraped my knees
while I was praying
And found a demon
in my safest haven
Seems like it's getting harder
to believe in anything
Than just to get lost in
all my selfish thoughts
I wanna know what it'd be like
To find perfection in the pride
To see nothing in the light
But turn it off in all my
spite in all my spite
I'll turn it off
Chorus
And the worst part is
before it gets any better
We're headed for a cliff
Then in the freefall
I will realize
I'm better off when
I hit the bottom
Interlude
Verse 2
The tragedy it seems
I'm ending
I'm watching everyone I looked
up to break and bending
We're taking shortcuts
and false illusions
Just to come out the hero

The wheels are cranking turning
It's all wrong the way we're working
Towards a goal that's
nonexistent it's nonexistent
But we just keep believing
(Repeat Chorus)

saw my daddy cry
And curse at the wind
He broke his own heart and
