Lyrics
Here's a toast/I'll meet you at the battle.
At the bottom of this bottle/I hide.
It's so cold here/my skin is cracked and bleeding/as I feel my soul retreating again.
This is my/apology.
For not becoming/all that you've dreamed.
But I've come this far/I'm so torn apart.
I try to make amends/as I watch the story end.
I wish you'd try/as life passes me by.
Everyone I know/has the tendency to go
away from here.
I can see you as you're leaving/and the cycles still repeating.
Forget, forget me call me/foolish.
There's nowhere else to go down here/I try to compromise in fear.
This is my/apology.
I'm such a failure/I'm so weak.
But I've come this far/I'm so torn apart.
I try to make amends/as I watch the story end.
I wish you'd try/as life passes me by.
Everyone I know/has the tendency to go
away.
Away.
And when I go to sleep.
I can barely breath.
Knowing that I am a mistake in your eyes.
No I can't breath.
No I can't breath.
No I can't, no I can't breath.
But I've come this far/I'm so torn apart.
I try to make amends/as I watch the story end.
I wish you'd try/as life passes me by.
Everyone I know/has the tendency to go
away from here.
