Ir - Eyes Shut Lyrics

My insecurities are the worst part of me
But i carry on just to see the better side of me

Because i know that this is who i want to be
My opinion of myself changing right in front of me

I tend to stay quiet
When i have nothing nice to say
I tend to feel nothing
When you're not next to me
For the first time in a long time i'm free
I just shut my eyes when reality hurts me
I shut my eyes

I'm dead inside
I feel you climb
This world is my
Safe guard from everyday life
I need to find
The reason why
I find myself
Everyday drowning in self pity

This is all that i have
All that i am
To be a better man i do all that i can
Never could sleep
Never did weep
Pick up the pieces i'm not weak

Close my heart and i shut out the feelings
Pick myself up and find a new meaning
Why do i do this all for no reason
I'm just used, bruised and beaten

I tend to stay quiet
When i have nothing nice to say
I tend to feel nothing
When you're not next to me
For the first time in a long time i'm free
I just shut my eyes when reality hurts me
I shut my eyes

Take time to reflect
Build on whats next
I know whats needed
But i feel my demons pushing back at me
