Well here I am again face down in my own pity
I don't know who you are
Or where I am
You're clinching your teeth
(And I won't care until I wake up again)
I'm starting to see the change taking place in your eyes
A grin left carefully clean and deceiving, clean and deceiving
He'll never own his right to believing
They're always pushing in the other direction
He'll never own his right to believing
They're always pushing in the other direction
A family would ask for more
But this what they get
I am what they get
Mistakes define my very being
I am nothing more than a reflection of fathers
Mistakes define my very being
I am nothing more than a reflection of fathers
All I hear is static
Please God, come home
I am dying
And I am alone
It's so hard to tell myself
Myself, that I don't need you
'Cause I can't breathe without you, without you in my lungs
I'm starting to breathe just a little bit slower
My lungs are reacting, collapsing to the weight of your hands
How can I help myself if I don't know who in the hell I've become?
I am not a martyr
I am only in this for myself
Will you just come home
Or am I to drown in my pity
Priests and saints will study me as an example of sin
Priests and saints will study me as an example of sin
It's damn miserable living life in a fucking lie
But we chose our sides, but we chose our sides
But we chose our sides, but we chose our sides
Priests and saints will study me as an example of sin
Study me
