Looking back for answers to my secrets
Hoping to be blinded by the truth
I am damned walking through the present
I am damned and alone because god forgot me too

Too often I become detached from myself
Forced smiles on the surface of a hollow shell

When every new day comes
A piece of me revealed
I hide behind your expectations
But nothing stays concealed

Mistakes I've made always follow me
but looking back doesn't have to sting
I know the reason it hurts at all
Is cause' I let my past define me

I aim to fight my way out
Picking at a wound I won't let heal
Praying that comfort will find me

I aim to fight my way out
Scratchin' at the sore so I can feel
Praying that comfort will come pouring out

Too often I become detached from myself
Forced smiles on the surface of a hollow shell

What good am I if I cannot admit
That who I was is not who I am

Who I was is not who I am
Who I was is not who I am

I aim to fight my way out
Picking at a wound I won't let heal
Praying that comfort will find me

I aim to fight my way out
Searchin' for a sign that I'm still here
Praying that comfort will come pouring out
