Swallowed the daylight Telling that it´s alright Maybe I can forget These Pockets filled with regret Strip me down Till just my pain remains Life outside these walls Feels like someone else’s dream I count the cracks in the glass Like they’re the years I’ll never see Face down on a cold white tile Jaw locked in a dead-man smile Eyes burn but the tears ran dry Bit my tongue just to feel alive Every day the mirror’s asking What am I even breathing for I lit the match, I drained the color, I drowned Tried to make the wreckage mean something clean Now strip me down to whatever's still bleeding I'm nothing but the shape of what I've been Take it all, take it all— there's barely anything left Just shame wearing the shadow of my name Voices in the hallway Fade to static in my head Fragments of what once was me I tell myself to remember why They say “it gets better” But they never say when I’m so tired of the waiting Of pretending I’m not caving in Bleed out in the back of my brain Thinking while it all sounds the same Tearing my mind to prove that I stayed Strangled by the words I´d forgave I lit the match, I drained the color, I drowned Tried to make the wreckage mean something clean Now strip me down to whatever's still bleeding I'm nothing but the shape of what I've been Take it all, take it all — there's barely anything left Just shame wearing the shadow of my name
