I'll take my place
Beneath the floor
Beneath the dirt
I am nothing
I watched my fears come to life
As they dragged me to this grave
They pulled me further and further down
I wish I was blind
But I'm forced to watch this
As I'm trapped inside
I feel my lungs about to explode
As I scream for help
But nobody's there
But nobody's listening
I wonder now if I even want out of this place
What is there left on the other side
The truth is I'm afraid to find out
This place of ruin is now my home

Stones

I still feel unsure of myself, second guessing every decision
I tried to bury my past just to forget, but the spade keeps blocking my vision
Today you removed a stone in the wall that I built
To keep me from hurting myself or anyone else
I’ll admit that I’m scared, but I don’t want to run so I’ll stay here as long as you want
I want so badly to know you more, but I’m afraid you won’t like what you find in me
I’ll let you down, I’ll fail you
I’ll let you down, I promise I’ll fail you
But if you’re content we can sit by the water
And one by one, we can skip the stones from the wall that I built
Till we can be together
Today you removed a stone in the wall that I built
To keep me from hurting myself or anyone else
I’ll admit that I’m scared, but I don’t want to run so I’ll stay here as long as you want

Restored

To be honest I’m hiding again, driving off into darkness,
You know where I’ve been
And I swore that I’d call you no matter my plans
I feel that I’ve let you down once again
The demons I’m facing have taken apart who I am
Self-loathing, uncertainty, I am nothing, I am fading
I can’t fake it anymore, this is me broken and numb
I just want to be restored
I know you’ve been waiting for this, and I’m sorry it took so long
Oh God, I want to be restored
And the hope in my eyes has grown dimmer each day
I can’t feel you with me, I can’t feel a thing
It’s getting harder each day to say I’m alright
And the hope that I once had has almost died
The demons I’m facing have taken apart who I am
Self-loathing, uncertainty, I am nothing, I am nothing
I can’t fake it anymore, this is me broken and numb
I just want to be restored
I know you’ve been waiting for this, and I’m sorry it took so long
Oh God, I want to be restored
To be honest, I’m lying again,
Because I’m gonna fake it the first chance I get
I can’t fake it anymore, this is me broken and numb
I just want to be restored
I know you’ve been waiting for this, and I’m sorry it took so long
Oh God, I want to be restore

Valley

You’re standing in a valley between a mountain and your pride
Just waiting for them to collide
And when you look up you can see the lacerations in the sides
From all your failed attempts to climb
You used to stand so tall, You used to stand so tall
So how can I tell you that things will get better
I know you’re still so consumed with all of your memories,
Broken and shattered
I’m trying to find my way out too
The rain starts pouring as you fall to your knees
You let the water creep up toward your head and you think
No more worries, no more pain, nothing lost, and nothing gained
But I’m reaching for you, please don’t let me go
So how can I tell you that things will get better
I know you’re still so consumed with all of your memories
Broken and shattered
I’m trying to find my way out too

Believe me, I'm trying to see that I'm worth anything
I've been told I'm strong
But when my exterior crumbles
You can see my broken frame
This is what I get for all my doubt
The only thing I've mastered at 23
Is that I'm pretty good at feeling sorry for myself
Well maybe I should let go or just get over it
If I can climb over these broken promises
I pretend that these bottles are my friends
But when they're empty on the floor
They prove to me I'll never belong
I wrote my name in blood
Just to see my vows get trampled over and over again
Can you prove me wrong
The only thing I've mastered at 23 I
Is that I'm pretty good at feeling sorry for myself
Well maybe I should let go or just get over it
If I can climb over these broken promises
Maybe I could
I think it's time to let go
Maybe I should
I think it's time to let go
