A Way Out

Thoughts are the shadows of feelings
Always darker, emptier, and simpler
I don't care if they're fake or real
I just thank them for showing up at all
I have black periods
Who does not?
But they are not a part of me
They are not a part of illness
But a part of my being
What am I saying
I have the courage to have them
Four o'clock in the morning
This sucks

Is it my turn to speak
It's finally time to say
Why do some people hold harder as you get away
Have you got all control
Have you lost all your sense
It's time to pick up all my things and see where the road heads

Maybe I'm just stupid
Maybe I'm not right
Maybe all the times I asked you, you might've replied
But is it really worth it
Did you even try
Tear this family apart hope they believe your lies

Watcha saying to me
(I just can't)
Put the soap in my mouth
(I just can't)
Find a way out
Find a way out
Find a way out
(I just can't)

I've got things to do
I've got things to say
The youngest child had his fun, it's time to break away
We will not meet agenda
We don't see eye to eye
I guess this is so long, farewell, and a fucking goodbye

Watcha saying to me
(I just can't)
Put the soap in my mouth
(I just can't)
Find a way out
Find a way out
Find a way out
(I just can't)

I'm trying to save my city
I'm trying to save my city
I'm trying to save my city
I'm trying to save my city

I'm trying to save my city
I'm trying to save my city
I'm trying to save my city
I'm trying to save my city
I'm trying to save my city
I'm trying to save my city
I'm trying to save my city
I'm trying to save my city
