A Piece of Myself

Just another pill
IM an ANIMAl
somebody get me out of here
I dont need an education
behind this miracle mile smile
down another day
and there we all stand on this overpass
from another perfect world
I remember when i lost my mind
Im a Victom
they got me on some medication
seasons change and set me free
thrown away
ever since i was little
and still you call me codependant
throwing you away
running
emotions and space had an echo
Now inside Im seeing
down another day
she keeps coming back
DETAILS
and i can die when im done
running away
pills
out there without care
Blood pumping through my veigns
pills
Im the Hunted
maybe your crazy!!!
Inside I'm seeing
didnt want to bore you with all these details
somehow you laid the blame on me
numb dumb
I knew too much
The morning sunrise
IM JUST A CHILD WITH THESE TEARS

anyone at all
like the morning sunrise
anybody else
Im a RIPTIDE
wont save us from ourselves
Im tearing at myself
does that make me crazy?
shadowing

can i hold you tomorrow?
foreshadowing the hindsight of everybody else
that has a story to tell
smashed to the wall
Can I hold You Tomorrow? 
we'll never let you down!
to run away

does that make me crazy?
Nobody gives a damn about me
with all these pills that left me 
Still cant taste it
numb and dumb 
Change is melting everything
still you lay the blame on me
the pills to make you anybody else
Cold Like the Ocean?
Think twice of my only advice
numb and dumb
IM UNDER THE STAIRS
can i be something else

season come season go
No one gives a damn about anybody else
I've done it all
this bump on my head
cancerous neglect
Im the way of Left Of the middle
whop do you think you are?
didn't have to bore you with details
and the world threw me away again today
to drown me in all these pills

swallow them with milk and water
make you numb
spoonfuls of sugar
we'll never let you down
make you dumb
I've seen it all
I'm tearing at myself
bless your soul!
what do i have left now?
i make a point to educate myself
add some honey
are you someone else yet?
will you save me from everyone else
when you become
Ive seen it all
anybody else
I think your crazy
If i Could hold you tomorrow
Your asleep when i get home
and all these drugs wont save 
me from myself?
Im not self defendant

I keep saying goodbye
cuts mer to the bone
Just like me
Im the broken one whose fixed it
