Senses Fail - Ali for Cody lyrics

Lyrics to Ali For Cody: I'm giving up all expectations That I will live a meaningful life I once was filled with inspiration That lion heart has lost his pride I'm not the person that I thought that I would be I keep tripping over the same steps The stars aren't beautiful Advice is never useful And I still walk the line held tight with my regrets I'd rather die than live like this I gotta give up giving in Some people never will go crazy What horrible lives they must lead I'm gonna try and paint new scenery And build a window to help me see I'm not the person that I thought that I would be I keep tripping over the same steps The stars aren't beautiful Advice is never useful And I still walk the line held tight with my regrets I'd rather die than live like this I gotta give up giving in I have got my eye lids stapled shut I have failed but I'm used to it My past is just that It's a sunken old ship There will be moments I pretend that I can raise it up Up out from the depths Who the f** am I kidding? I was born with the curse of always giving in Every day is another chance to make peace with myself But I would rather play dead Sure it looks easy when it's through borrowed eyes A hero has a thousand faces, none of them matching mine f** the world, f** the stars, f** the person you are But nothing will matter if I don't give up folding my cards I keep tripping over the same steps The stars aren't beautiful Advice is never useful And I still walk the line held tight with my regrets I'd rather die than live like this I gotta give up giving in
