but i will shy away from the specifics. 'cause i don't want you to know where i am
'cause then you'll see my heart
in the saddest state it's ever been. this is no place to try and live my life. stop right there. that's exactly where i lost it. see that line. well i never should have crossed it. stop right there. well i never should have said
that it's the very moment that
i wish that i could take back. i'm sorry for the person i became. i'm sorry that it took so long for me to change. i'm ready to be sure i never become that way again
'cause who i am hates who i've been. who i am hates who i've been. i talk to absolutely no one. couldn't keep to myself enough. and the things bottled inside have finally begun
to create so much pressure that i'll soon blow up. i heard the reverberating footsteps
synching up to the beating of my heart
and i was positive that unless i got myself together
i would watch me fall apart. and i can't let that happen again
'cause then you'll see my heart
in the saddest state it's ever been. this is no place to try and live my life. who i am hates who i've been
and who i am will take the second chance you gave me. who i am hates who i've been
'cause who i've been only ever made me. so sorry for the person i became. so sorry that it took so long for me to change. i'm ready to be sure i never become that way again
'cause who i am hates who i've been. who i am hates who i've been.
