life |
| I couldn’t get my life back |
| I couldn’t get my life back, I couldn’t save myself |
| All the words of my mother hang heavy over me |
| It’s summer in Texas, 2003 |
| I dissociate, the world around me fades |
| There is no self if there is no one else |
| So I isolate and suppress discomfort |
| And I sacrifice any shred of my own self-worth |
| While I put so much faith in my open eyes |
| I have never felt so lonely and desperate |
| I couldn’t get my life back |
| I couldn’t get my life back, I didn’t stand a chance |
| All the pain within my past weighs heavy on my heart |
| The euphoria won’t last, it’ll tear your life apart |
| I feel the same; |
| the world around me changed |
| It is a mess, and I could not make sense |
| Of this brave new world I navigate alone |
| Or my hyper-vulnerability I now call home |
| 'Cause I put so much trust in their shifting words |
| And I have never felt so stupid and useless before |
| But it is all my fault |
| I never should have trusted them |
| It’s easy to smile and wave, to tell them one thing to their face |
| It’s hard to tell the truth |
| Yeah, it is all my fault |
| But how could I have known that |
| What people call low self-esteem is really just seeing yourself |
| The way other people see you? |
| I couldn’t get my life back |
| I couldn’t get my life back |
| I couldn’t get my life back |
| I couldn’t get my life back |
