lyrics

(Verse 1)
If I get too close to anyone, then I'ma end up messin up.
Stressin sucks. I'm sorry that I'm always so depressing. Fuck,
I can't be happy
because happiness is sappy.
I'm not good with my emotions,
and I don't know how to show em.
At least, not the way you want me to.
I'm not the guy you want me to.
be. I'm me, and I'm not perfect. Ain't that fucking true?
An introvert.
I've turned myself inside
turned my eyes to the internal, so I had somewhere to hide
in the crowded world. My only friend is me,
and he hates me. That's the part that really gets to me.
Especially, when I'm lost in thought, I'm stuck just him and me,
and he tells me all my flaws: Every single sin. It seems
we will never get along.
See, I don't hate myself;
I hate the part of me that hates myself.
the heart of me that breaks itself.
or others break.
Fuck it, I'm stuck inside my head,
and I'm not sure whether the people there want me alive or dead.


(1:10)
(Chorus)
I'm my best friend.
I'm my worst enemy.
I'm my conscience.
I'm regret:
the end of me.



(1:35)
(Verse 2)
Confidence is key. That's why I'm stuck within my thoughts.
I'm too busy fighting my demons to try to pick the lock.
They always win.
They hide for a little, then come back harder than before,
and it's always when I'm startin for the door.
So, I can wallow in my poor
esteem and swallow anymore.
I don't got a lot of dreams that I can follow anymore.
It's a cockamamy sport
for me to try to break my curse.
I think I'm just unlovable, or
I was made to hurt.
and, if either one is true,
I don't wish that onto you.
I just wish my sorrow helps you see
that others feel it too,
and, if others feel it too, then
you can color in the room.
You're trapped inside your mind,
but, now, it isn't black and white.
You gotta. look past the pain
and past mistakes
and graduate to Saturday
cause, when the week ends,
we're weakened.
The demons crashed the plane.
Theyre in your head,
and you need to get 'em out.
Have confidence, my friend, because the demons
feed on doubt.

(Chorus)
(X2)


(Outro)
You control your destiny.
D-Destiny.
Y-Y-Y-You control your destiny.
De-d-de-d
You control your destiny.
D-Destiny.
Destiny,
and I will fight with what is left of me
(X2)
