Oh, I know why
I know why everybody hates me
Just let me handle it
I'll make it so much better
I'm so confused
Tell me, why the hell is this happening
I've seen it all before
So why am I losing all control?
I'm not close to my home
Don't tell me how to be something more
I don't have what I need
So show me one more way
Nothing that I need is this
I don't know what to expect, so I hide myself away
Just like always
But I'm too naive to understand that I'm fading away
I'd break apart
Then try to pick up the pieces
With bleeding hands
I try to shield myself from despise
My reputation's gone so cold, and I'm
Giving in to my inner voices in
Unadulterated desperation
I can't find a shelter, 'cuz I burned my old one down
Along with all pride and joy
I want to quit, but I'm forced to march forward
Like an insignificant ant
I'm not close to my home
Don't tell me how to be something more
I don't have what I need
So show me one more way
Nothing that I need is this
I don't know what to expect, so I hide myself away
Just like always
But I'm too naive to understand that I'm fading away
This is where it starts and ends
I've got nothing in my defense
A downward spiral's all I see, and
It will only go down from here
