leaving this world

i can't walk carrying this ash on my back

i need to let it go

i need to let it go

but i can't let go when i'm on my own

how in the hell was this house once a home?

when i think i've found happiness

it never lasts

relax

it's all in the past

oh

is this the end

of everything i thought was real?

this can't be the end

this world used to seem so real

testing my patience with time

you've made up your mind

if you're leaving this world

i'm not far behind

i thought all of this was real

i thought all of this was real

i knew peace was a long shot

i was sorry long before you all thought

stay silent while the whole world

thinks i'm something i'm not

become the target of hatred

make me the target of hatred

when i think i've found happiness

it never lasts

relax

it's all in the past

oh

is this the end

of everything i thought was real?

this can't be the end

this world used to seem so real

testing my patience with time

you've made up your mind

if you're leaving this world

i'm not far behind

i thought all of this was real

i thought all of this was real

but the world i once knew is

just like the ash and the knives in my back

when i think i've found happiness

it never lasts

why won't it last?

the absolute worst of me

does not make up all of my being

oh

you think you know me

you know my mistakes

but you don't know me

you know my mistakes

but you don't know me

you know my mistakes

but you don't know me

you know my mistakes

but you don't know me

oh

is this the end

of everything i thought was real?

this can't be the end

this world used to seem so real

testing my patience with time

you've made up your mind

if you're leaving this world

i'm not far behind

i thought all of this was real

i thought all of this was real
