Hello, Drifter

Life can be so overwhelming
Constantly consuming all of me
Life can be so overwhelming
Constantly consuming all of me
Another day
One on one with self doubt
In the comfort of loathing
You used to be so calm
A fortress impenetrable (impenetrable)
Now a shameful man
In endless woe
Despite your love I still hate myself, but
I would rather die than be someone else
If it takes too long to get yourself in line
Take your scorn, I don’t need you
Choke on empty words, I won’t believe you
I’ll take my time breathing faith back in my life
Being a coward isn’t going so well
Aren’t you better than this?
Stand up for yourself
What you get is what you give
So use your heart to breakdown
These walls from within
In a shade of discontent
I blind myself in ignorance
You are the smog surrounding me
I will extinguish you indefinitely
I am self-enslaved
Every link, every chain, you’ll find my name
But I will bestow all forms
Of hope and valor within these arms
Tear down your apathy
Don’t waste another second hearing what you don’t believe
This life is yours to take
You’re just another barrier for me to break
Dispossession
This is the end of grief
Dispossession
Having it’s hold on me
Dispossession
This is the end of grief
Dispossession
Having it’s hold on me
Despite your love I still hate myself, but
I would rather die than be someone else
If it takes too long to get yourself in line
Take your scorn
I don’t need you
Choke on empty words
I won’t believe you
I’ll take my time
Breathing faith back in my life
The way your emotions waver
Like a harsh and violent wind
Tipping over the scales of despair
Hoping to never weigh you down again
Despite your love
I still hate myself
But I would rather die
Than be someone else
