//Verse 1
I been acting sorta strange as it plays out
Tryna shoulder blame for the grey clouds
I'ma go insane in like a day now
Everythings great, but I been weighed down lately
Made a few mistakes and wear a fake smile daily
Hate that I've been rotting in my skin
I need to stop and look within
Something must be wrong with me, friends
Ain't been feeling so strong, I been feeling so tense
But alas
I am just a product of my past
Everyone can see I'm made of tiny shards of glass
Maybe I was grasping at the straws
But I never looked back till I was gone
So I belong amongst the worst of them
The ones who'd never hurt someone on purpose
But still somehow find some sick way to hurt ya
//Chorus
Running is the surest way to fall
Ima keep it coming but im gonna take it slow
walk this earth at my own pace
so I deserve my life someday
I might behave
like I dont care
like fate is all up in the air
but life's been fair
and I digress
I know my parents tried their best
//Verse 2
and I know folks who have it worse than me
my burns are only first degree
It takes a fair amount of care to keep from needing surgery
I'm outta here and sure to hit a wall or two
But I would sooner die before I ever thought of fallin' to the bottom
I was brought up to expect every problem every test
Every lie I ever told was to conquor my neglect and
if I ever grow old I'll be honestly impressed
I made it past these obstacles I constantly deflect
now as I talk to my reflection i learn things already known
like that to walk one direction is to live without a soul
my conciousness protected by the wisdom that I've grown
I'm alone
but that dont make me any less at home
I'm a goat in the sheeps clothing
taking these bleak moments and turning them into something
thats helping me keep focused
I'm nervous and weak and every one of these freaks knows it
I'm certain theyll throw stones till one of us bleeds
//Chorus
Running is the surest way to fall
Ima keep it coming but im gonna take it slow
walk this earth at my own pace
so I deserve my life someday
I might behave
like I dont care
like fate is all up in the air
but life's been fair
and I digress
i never really
tried my best
