Bad Way

Spent last night hating what I’d become
You see, I’ve been in a bad way
A disconnect from my heart to my tongue
You see, I’ve been in a bad way
I talk, talk but only hurt the ones that I care about the most
I talk, talk but only push away the things I keep close
I’m going to knock on the door
With my shoulder to the frame
Let me in
Leave the light on the porch
With my shoulder to the frame
I’ll make it back somehow, someway
Let me in
I only see the things I want to change
I feel like I am falling
Face to face with my own excuses
I always find the exit to escape
I want, want to make those around me proud
Proud of who I am
Fall, fall asleep soundly, wake up and start again
Hold my tongue just to confess
I’m nowhere near my best
Hold my tongue just to confess
I’m getting closer all the time
All alone is no reason to be scared
I need broken bones and honest air
