I foresee a loss in my future
This devastating feeling that
I can't deter
Tenderness of hopelessness
Saturates my emptiness
Amplified by loneliness
And I can't break through
Seeking a drug called validation
Cause melancholy has no vaccination
I know placebos won't help my soul
Mutilate my spirit and send it below
Sick of being me
Sick of my own skin
Sick of the tears
And I'm sick of the fears
In your eyes
I'm a f*cking failure
Peeled back another layer
Letting it all bleed out
I'm giving up on me
This way no one can see
Suffocate from lack of humility
I foresee a loss in my future
This devastating feeling that
I can't deter
Tenderness of hopelessness
Saturates my emptiness
Amplified by loneliness
And I can't break through
Relax and relapse
Relapse to relax
Let the edge consume you
Lose to substance one more time
Lose one more time
And every day you're out living the dream
While i'm asleep here inside of the nightmare
The best detox
Is a retox
Not seemingly unorthodox
Tattered soul
Please don't give up on me
Answers not plain to see
I'm ashamed of what I have to be
No I can't ask for help
No I can't help myself
I've become stagnant inside my soul
