LIVING WITH ME
1 - Why do I keep doing this to myself
Keeping these memories up on a shelf
Like souvenirs from a painful place
Like a show of my falling from grace
Why do I keep pushing into my wake
Vivid flashbacks of every one mistake
People I've hurt have long forgiven
And every one else has forgotten
Chorus- My body fights against me
My mind won't let me be free
My heart holds on to what's gone
It's so hard living with me
2 - So deaf to my own apologies
So numb to the weight upon my knees
When I have paid, Oh how I have paid
Will I never rise from this bed I made
Chorus -
Bridge - It can't be easy, what remains
Of my beaten conscience
Because losing you,
Can I ever take back hurting you?
I could never do worse,
Never can be worse than this
No, living with me can't be easy for me
