I try and breathe, memories overtaking me.
I try to face them but, the thought is too much to conveice

Pre-chorus...
I only know that I can change, everything else just stays the same.
So now I step up from the darkness that my life became.

Chorus (heavy distortion)...
I just needed someone to talk to but you were just too busy with yourself.
You were never there for me to express how I felt, I just pushed it down.
But now I'm older and I feel like I should let this anger fade.
But it seems the surface I am scratching is the bed that I have made.
