The Man That Never Was - SECRETS

I wanna scream at the top of my lungs

Pissed off at myself for what I’ve done

I’ve been down this path

I’ve felt the wrath of the sins from my past

It burns so deep

What I’ve done to you, I’ll never escape

It burns so deep

You’re everything I’ll never be

I need to open my eyes

To see again, to see the way I was back then

(Gotta find my way, gotta find a way back again)

Tear open my chest

To dig around and tell me why I’m such a mess

I got a fear that my heart got up and left

Oh, I’m somewhere drifting, hanging out with regret

We’re laughing, making jokes of past things I did

I call apathy «my one and only friend»

Keep a distance, I could be contagious

I’m a little twisted and in dire need of assistance

I won’t quit these habits if I know I can’t have it

Because, because I’m sick, I’m a dick

I’m quick with my words, draw on me, you’ll get hurt

I’m scum, I’m numb

There’s nothing you can do to me that I haven’t done

I need to open my eyes

To see again, to see the way I was back then

(Gotta find my way, gotta find a way back again)

Tear open my chest

To dig around and tell me why I’m such a mess

I got a fear that my heart got up and left

I am a shadow, the hollowed out shell

Of a man that was, a man that was

I am a shadow, the hollowed out shell

Of a man that was, a man that was

You’re my mistake

You’re my mistake

I’m the villain of this metropolis

I’ll sink this ship, I’ll burn this bridge

I’ll end what little life we’re in

I need to open my eyes

To see again, to see the way I was back then

(Gotta find my way, gotta find a way back again)

Tear open my chest

To dig around and tell me why I’m such a mess

I got a fear that my heart got up and left

Does it make sense to feel so spent?

Get this off my chest

Has the best of me came and went?

Does it make sense to feel so spent?

Get this off my chest

Has the best of me came and went?

Does it make sense to feel so spent?

Get this off my chest

Has the best of me came and went?

(Is this feeling passing? I keep asking)

Does it make sense to feel so spent?

Get this off my chest

Has the best of me came and went?

(Is this temporary? Please be temporary)

They say it gets better with time

Well, it’s been time enough and I want to live my life

I let you down, now you’ve got me on hold

I just want to go home
